The boat that we will be fishing out of is a 23 foot, 6 inch center console manufactured by Sea Fox, outfitted by Core Fishing Tackle. This center console has been fully rigged out for freshwater and saltwater fishing, but specifically for striper fishing at Smith Mountain Lake. I'm using a Suzuki 200 HP- four stroke as the powerhouse. This boat will cruise between 35-45mph and max out at 55-60mph. The Sea Fox CC has a very deep-V which cuts down on the summer waves at Smith Mountain Lake. This boat has been flawless and has been used day in day out without a single issue from the boat. No broken latches or hatches, no hull cracks or Gel Coat issues. Perfect boat.

This boat has a custom filtration system for the onboard 40 gallon bait tank. Dual Venturi kits, dual filters and dual aerators. We have installed 19 QuickDraw rod holders. Two 4-Bank On Board Chargers power the 8 Deep Cycle Batteries.

For finding fish we have an HDS-10 High Definition Sonar/Chartplotter with an additional Structure Scan Module added to provide 3D Side to Side Sonar Scanning. Beside the HDS-10 is an LCX 111 Hard Drive unit for Conventional Sonar and GPS.

The trolling motor is a Minn Kota 36 Volt, 101 Pound Thrust, Auto-Pilot, Co-Pilot Remote system.

Here's the Creek Bank Bait Spa. Its an awesome invention. Its a self contained filtration/aeration system that you can drop into your livewell, barrel, cooler, etc so that you can keep bait alive. This works alot better than regular Aerators because it has the venturi system from Creek Bank Bait Tanks that provide micro bubbles, which aerates the water much better. The filter system will allow you to keep gizzards too! Check out http://www.corefishingtackle.com/CreekBankBaitSpa.html for more information and pictures.

Here's my X15 and 111c that I purchased from www.corefishingtackle.com

I definitely recommend Boga Grips for weighing, taking pictures and releasing fish. If you looking to buy some Boga Grips by Eastaboga Tackle, check out www.corefishingtackle.com for great prices.
