The Type of Water

The first thing to note is that not all boats are built to handle all types of water. For example, shallow waters have large chunks of debris hidden in their murky depths. Whether that be rocks or fallen tree trunks, it’s important to choose a model that won’t scrape along the bottom and get damaged by debris. A flat bottom model is good for avoiding scrapes but it tends to ride rough in choppy waters. A V-hull offers a smoother ride but you’ll need more power to move it.

Speaking of riding rough - choppy waters are notorious for tossing boats around and smacking them with surf. If this is where you’ll be, you’ll want to check out bay fishing boats. These models have deep bottoms and high sides that promise an ultra-smooth ride. They’re often smaller and lighter, so you’ll have better fuel efficiency in exchange for some loss of stability. Offshore boats, on the other hand, are large and provide superior stability. Both of these models are made from sturdy materials to prevent corrosion from the salty sea and air. Many of these fishing boats also come with bonus amenities, like spacious cabins.
 

The Type of Fish

Some fishing boats are specifically built to catch certain types of fish. There are fish that remain close to shore to avoid predators, which means you’ll want a shallow draft on whatever craft you choose. Other species dart about in the depths of the ocean, which will call for a deep-V hulled boat of ample size that can handle the tides. Then there are the fish that clump in the same areas of water while others migrate around at different times during the year. When you understand where your intended catch will be, it’ll help you determine what type of fishing boat you need.
 

Accessories

There are a few accessory upgrades that’ll take your vessel from good to great. A rod holder allows you to keep the fishing rod secure while you step away for a moment. This enables you to set up multiple lines at once or simply give your arms a rest. You might also consider a depth gauge to get accurate readings on the depth of the water to help you locate your catch.
