John boat with a 30 HP Johnson on it. I catch more fish on the river than 90% of the people fishing. I never get up and try to beat the crowd because my Motor doesn't run as fast as the big boats with 150HP motor on them. I take my time and know where and how to fish.

But.....what's the point of having 150 HP and just sitting there catching fish? Ya gotta floor it, plane it out and show off what ya got! I have a 12' jon boat and a lectrik motor. Life ain't supposed to be easy.

Probably a good idea to keep current wheels as a backup. Spend more time in the boat and little in the truck. Call in sick to work more.
