Nice fish! I just got my first nice deep V boat and want to start going for salmon and lakers off Milwaukee. Any recommendations for bare minimum items to get started?
If you are going to be fishing the bigger fisheries I would say get a good kicker motor. It saves a ton of hours on the main motor and gives you a way to get back to shore if you lose main engine power. Also get 18' or bigger. I had a 16'6" tracker and it was too small for the bigger lakes. Good luck in getting your new boat, send me a picture! I will also add I love my Ranger, great brand.
