    Awesome! Happy you like your Contender. I go out every day on my 25...even if it is for 1 hour of just a cruise or fishing. Furthest I went with it was the Reasor for seabass a true slaying with the Minn Kota.

    Def need a little boat tuna spread set up u gunna run riggers on that or just wide trackers I would love to see a vid like that

    • @reaperfishingnj8623
      @reaperfishingnj8623  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I used to run my first boat ( 32 Proline Express) with just single spreader riggers and usually 7 rods as we were always light on crew. With Wide trackers I can easily duplicate that spread I think....and we killed lots of tuna!!!!

    Boat looks clean, I’m a local marine mechanic out of cape may, would love to come check the boat out in person and meet you aswell. We specialize in Suzukis and Yamahas. Also acrylic dash panels, and trolling motors. Big fan of the videos.

    Nice boat, I have the Garmin Bluechart G3 Vision VUS512L Mid Atlantic in my boat, check out the relief shading if you haven’t seen it yet. After rebate it was only $150. It’s unbelievable haw detailed the wrecks and rocks are.there’s a lot more to great fishing than marked wrecks. Look at and you’ll see what I mean. Can’t wait for the next video.

  • @northshoreanglers6286
    @northshoreanglers6286 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Have you fished the boat any more this summer? How does she handle in different sea conditions and on the drift in a little bit of chop or swell ? You said you had buyers remorse it is bc of the weather or is the boat not meet your expectations? I’m looking to purchase this same boat . Any insight would be great

      @@reaperfishingnj8623 the guy ken over there is a genius when it comes to figuring out what size and pitch to use based on your needs. I'm sure he's propped several 23t with 200s.

  • @Glory-Days-Fishing
    @Glory-Days-Fishing 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Absolutely love the boat. Best of luck with it. Question on the Garmin. Do you have a through hull or transom mount?
    I have a new 25’ center console hopefully being delivered next month. I have a through hull transducer being installed at the factory but I also bought a transom mount so I can utilize the side view and the down view of the new Garmin. Where did you mount your transom mount transducer? Is it between the 2 motors or to the right of the starboard side motor? Love watching your show.miming South Carolina now but NJ born and raised.
    Keep up the great videos and if you’re ever in the Charleston area,look me up and we’ll go out fishing.

    • @reaperfishingnj8623

      Thru Hull transducer only. Thanks so much for watching and thanks so much for the kind offer!

    @zacharypeters1981 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    How much do you think the beam being 8'6" vs some 26's around 9'6" matter. I've only ever driven regulator Grady and my Edgewater
