{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Fly Fishing from Off Shore Boat

If your budget allows look into trim tab trolling motors. I have fished a fair amount on my old boss' Parker 23 SE, which sounds a lot like your boat, with Lenco trim tab trolling motors. I can't imagine approaching fishing structure or even breaking fish only using the outboard.

I am a fly fisherman with a 23 foot center console boat built more for offshore fishing than inshore.   This boat is not very nimble, and I am not able to get into very shallow water (I don't like to get less than 4' of water even though it drafts about 18"), and it doesn't maneuver very well (no trolling motor).   I am looking for a spot on the lower or middle bay or tributaries to fly fish from this boat.  Hopefully could get some topwater bites in a little deeper water. Does anyone have any suggestions for a guy who loves to fly fish but has the wrong boat for that?
