I just used my new 11ft Bucks Bag Bronco Extreme pontoon yesterday for the first time. It worked great. I fished from the shore, side drifting where I could before I had to grab the oars again, anchored but most of the time just stepped out front (anchor was too light to hold me in fast water, I think I was using about 5 lbs and will get a 15lb anchor next). No fish but I had an awesome day learning the boat. Even better yet, my wife shuttled cars around so when I was done it took me less than 5 minutes to get the truck, load and hit the road. My buddy and I got these for Alaska floats but it will sure be nice to go along with my drift boat, his sled and raft. We got a great deal on these by mail ordering 2002 models, anyone interested email me and I'll send you the contact info.
