bass boats

Freshwater fishing craft

Bass boats are specialized fishing boats designed for freshwater bass fishing.

They feature a low, flat-bottomed hull for shallow water, a raised casting platform at bow and stern, and a powerful outboard motor for quick movement between fishing spots.

Most have built-in livewells to keep caught fish alive: He trailered his bass boat to the tournament at dawn.
