Are Pontoon Boats Good For Fishing? Absolutely!


Pontoon designs in the past might have left fishing enthusiasts very reluctant to purchase one due to there being "too much furniture" or "not enough room to cast or for gear". Pontoon manufacturers, like Bennington Marine, have developed some fantastic floorplans tailored to the angler community to excel in both functionality and comfort. 

 

Pontoons not only have lots of space, but they great, as far as, stability and maneuverability when it comes to fishing. If you plan on teaching others how to fish, having plenty of deck space and stability makes the experience comfortable, for kids especially. Because pontoons draw in very little water, you are able to position the boat closer to the shoreline. The higher platform, compared to a bass boat, allows you to see down into the water if you like to do more sight fishing 

 

As if the quality, warranty, design, customizability and attention to detail wasn't enough of a reason to love Bennington as a pontoon manufacturer. Their fishing models are a game changer, when it comes to Fishing Pontoon innovation and design!
