Morning Cupidfish! I have a question for catfish fishermen that have boats on the larger rivers. I am my tax return check in and thing about getting a boat, but needed a few tip on what would be safe and practical on  large rivers like the Mississippi. Also, I’d like something economical and reasonably priced. I guess what I’d really like to know is if there is one single boat that would work for me on small, medium, and large rivers like the mighty Mississippi as well as on large reservoirs and lakes? If I could only afford one boat for the next 30 years or so what should it be? V or flat bottom jon? I suppose any boat that would be practical on small to midsize rivers probably wouldn’t be big enough to be safe on the mighty Miss.? Also, I don’t live currently live near a major river like the Mississippi or Ohio but I hope to within the next year or two if things work out & I couldn’t imagine living next to a river like that & not catfishing every chance you can.
