Lund Fisherman

[JordanL]

I am thinking about buying a lund 186 fisherman GL and was looking at any input from anybody that has rode in one before. Thanks, Jordan

I have not rode in one but have heard good things about the ride.

You're probably doing this already, but just in case you're not I'll throw it out there ---- are you comparing them to the comparable Ranger Angler / Reatas and pricing both brands?

[JordanL]

No I haven't yet. I am going to call a few dealers tuesday. I am worried about getting a boat that just came out in case there are any problems with it. But I figured lund has a big reputation to protect. Anybody agree or disagree with that? Thanks

I have looked at both and while the wife likes the Lund I would prefer the Angler. The angler is set up better for fishing IMO. Lund is supposed to have two sizes of glass pro-V's that I would have to see before I plopped my money down.

The price difference between the Lund and the Rangers at the boat shows is pretty close so make sure you get what you want.

Well i decided to go with the lund fisherman gl. The one i got does not have the smartcraft gauges. Would you guys recomend getting that put on? Thanks

I love my Smartcraft guages.

If you can swing the added cost of smartcraft gauges I wouldn't hesitate. You're able to control your rpm at trolling speed far better & it gives you a wealth of information on how your motor is running, how much fuel you're burning, etc.
