I love my C-Dory 22 Cruiser and fish out of it lots. I agree with all that was said about the fuel economy, the ride and the chop. However, if I were to use a boat solely for fishing, I would get either the 19' or 22' anglers, not the cruiser. Having said that, I would also look at the Arimas for purely fishing. You still get the fuel economy and stability on a boat designed for fishing.
