    Love this aluminum boat stuff. I’ve fished forever in a 648 War Eagle with a 40 merc. I’ve been on Fork with it many times. You’re gonna have to talk to Ott about rigging it out. As you probably know he’s got a sweet Tracker like yours that I think is the king of aluminum rigs. Please keep us updated on the rigging.

      Hey David glad you like this topic, I really enjoy aluminum boats and I’ve actually been texting with Ott to get some tips and ideas and how he rigged his out.

    This is so exciting!!! I'm sorry your season wasn't as fruitful as you had hoped. Can't wait to see how she ends up

      Thanks Beavis, appreciate the sentiment…fishing generally leaves wanting more. 😁
      Yah me too, I finally had it out for the main den voyage and it’s a super sweet rig

    Hi James. I just bought my 1754sc in mid June. I'm going through the same process as you. I'm excited to follow along and see what you do.

    Suggestion: 3 things extend the front deck and change out the outboard to a jet for shallow water, add another
    gas tank.

      Hi Caleb I would like to extend the deck. If I get a jet and add a gas tank I can’t fish tournaments with it so gonna pass

    Hi James...what happened to the Ranger 461 you started putting together?

    • @jamesniggemeyerfishing
      @jamesniggemeyerfishing  2 роки тому

      The 461 is like 95% finished and really while I would LOVE to keep both I will mostly sell the 461. 😕

    Did you get the recessed tray in. Just wondering because I have a 1754 grizzly and the wife bought me the same tray. I was wondering if you cut through the supports and how it is working. Thanks

    • @jamesniggemeyerfishing
      @jamesniggemeyerfishing  11 місяців тому

      I appreciate you following up and checking back in on that project. Unfortunately, it has not progressed as other things had taken precedence. That being said, I do plan to get into it sooner rather than later, and I have different ideas on how to distribute the supports with an extra brace. I plan to do a video on the entire process, hopefully before the end of the month.

    That’s a solid tracker, and it’s cool to fish team tournaments, but 17’ can be a little cramped for 2 people casting , and that depends on which direction 😜 I’m in 2 bass clubs in North Carolina and one of them changes teams for each derby, and I fished out of an 18’ which I had to watch my partner’s casts🤷🏻‍♂️😂😂 and I felt his lures wizzing past my ear 😂😂😂🤣 still a great boat and motor and I know I will learn from your rigging tricks✊🎣🍀🍀🎣👍👍👍

      Thanks Will, you definitely need to be cognizant of the other angler in the boat, but you can do some stuff or some places that you’d never do otherwise

      I pre drilled for one, was right into the frame. Had to stop. I have an Ultrex 80 on mine.
