I've been reading all I could on here and I still don't quite have an answer.
I'm looking to get my first pontoon but I can't decide what to get so I need some input. I primarily want to use my pontoon to fish on lakes and slower rivers. But I plan on trying to shoot some ducks/geese out of it as well. I'm pretty sure I want an aluminum frame and I'd really like to have a stand up casting deck, but I think I might be able to make a homemade one.
So far I'm tossing around the CA Colorado XT, a FishCat 10 IR (the one from Cabelas has a casting deck), FishCat Cougar, and the WaterSkeeter Chetco. Waterskeeter has the Hunter Fisher II but I can't decide if I like it. If I'm not worried about getting a non camo toon...I figure I'll just make a sock for the toons out of some camo blind material and grass it up. I'd rather not break the bank but I suppose if I have to spend 800 or so I will.
Any suggestions or input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
