I have been wondering while watching MLF why the decided to use the 18’ boats. Was it a sponsor thing or was it easier to not have the player drag their boats there e or what? I don’t know if this had been discussed or not I just wondered when I saw those big waves on Amistad.

Please spell out the word.............every time I see MLF, it looks like MILF and I clicked on it. EVERY TIME.............
Though they don't speak of it much, I believe that I read somewhere that Major League Fishing () was trying to show that you don't need a 20 or 21 foot boat to catch fish. One of the other things, and I don't know how it really matters, goes to Marty Stone wanting to take these anglers out of their "comfort zones". Not sure how that will make a difference but it has been said. I think the final piece is that while running 18 footers with 150's, they won't be travelling around quite as much. Pick a spot, hunker down and fish. Again, not so sure that you can't adequately cover water in those boats as they sccot along pretty good.
If you find something else out I would like to hear it.

It's about trying to sell boats. Since the industry went from selling 30,000 boats a year a few years back to 6,000 last year, they need to try and create some interest on a boat priced where more people can afford them. The market for $50k plus boats is very, very small these days.
That's what I'm thinking. I wondered if it was a push for the smaller boat. I just wondered if anybody had ever said what the real reason for it was.

you guys got me to thinking... wouldn't it be cheaper for Major League Fishing to supply all of them 18 ft /150's boats than 20+ ft /250's?
Inaugural season, and all...
Durn tootin' - there ya have it....
The biggest market in the boat industry right now is the 18 foot mid-range priced boats. If they show the pros using them, makes us want-a-bes decide we can afford a mid-range boat.

I'm glad I've already got one...

Well, if they brought their own 20 footers it could be pretty cheap on them too. However some of the sponsors lose the exposure.

Gotta admit the Nitro Z-7 is a nicely laid out boat.
The bass cat with the rod locker that extends into the seating area.....what were they thinking?
