With my schedule, I can't pick and choose when I can go fishing. I generally won't know about a day off until the night before and i might get one day every two weeks. So I need something that I can take out no matter what the wind is doing. And something that's not $35k. If I'm spending that, I may as well get a slightly used, fully loaded bass boat.
But a 16' skinny water boat would look so dank behind my little truck lol.
