Big Lake and Laccassine boat
Thinking what kind of boat best for Big Lake 75% and Laccassine 25%?Can't exceed 40hp for lacc.

I fish both. 1652 Xpress with 40 mercury tiller. Pick your days and be smart.

I have run: Cajun Specials, Bass Trackers, WeldBilts, AlWelds, Custom Flats, and my Ambush. My 1556 Ambush is the driest boat I have run across Big Lake, not counting my ProCraft. It really surprised me. It was no air cushioned ride, but it was dry. If I had it to do over, and I will, I would get a longer boat than 15' just to span the waves instead of jumping them.

When i was younger we fished everywhere on big lake, even on windy days in an alluminum boat.
Know all launches and whichever direction wind is blowing : drive to that side of lake and launch. Jetties,west cove,hog island, spicer, ellender,calcasieu point, heberts, Prein and even 210. |
I would offer you a test ride, but I had a spinal fusion 7 weeks ago. Dr does not want me in a boat for a few months. It's torturing me, this is the time of year I start fishing Lacassine. I can still arrange a ride.

Thanks for the advice. Looking at a 1752 Alweld wj 40 tohatsu sc.
|
I had a 1552 AlWeld with the 40/50 tohatsu 4 stroke. It was the best riding boat I ever owned. They are a well built heavy boat.

Ambush was drier. AlWeld rode better, heavier.

Good strategy haha. I've been out there in August and I'm not sure how an outboard would make it. |

You are right, I don't know what I was thinking. No open water, no fish, no boats, like a desert out there. D |
