Boat
Good info above and it really depends on your style of fishing. If your a guy that lives in the marsh, a Shallowsport, Flatscat, Majek Redfish line is somthing you might be interested in. If you want to venture to the jetties or offshore from time to time you might look at a different style hull.
If there is a wife and kids that will be fishing that needs to be taken into consideration as well. I would suggest something in the 20 to 22 foot range.
The most important thing is learning the area, Westbay scare's alot of people but it is an easy bay to learn. I run all over Westbay and its coves and backlakes in a 22' Whaler with very little problems. The back marsh is out for me and the back lakes can be a little iffy on the low winter tides but other than that it's all good.
Welcome and best of luck with your new boat!
