You don't think 25 is to big for inshore? Just seems like one of those sizes that's to big for inshore but not quite big enough for offshore.

for the marsh yes to big but dirfting canals/reefs in hopedale in the winter and bretonsound trips in the spring....perfect. could run into east bay and snapper fish. if the weather looked decent i would run 40-50 miles offshore in a 25ltz no worries

I hear you. Perfect world you have 3 different boats for marsh, bay and offshore. I guess everyones goal is to find their medium middle. I run a 22 bay ranger and have done east bay and Breton sound. Have not ventured offshore though.
