13 Best Lowe Boats For Fishing And Hunting 2023

Take your bass fishing game to the next level with the famous Lowe Stinger 198—hands down one of the best bass fishing boats on the market today. It’s a smart boat clearly designed by fisherman, for fisherman.

The Stinger 198 boasts one of the most deck space in the industry—94” Beam and 82.5 square feet of fish-fighting space. The front deck is so well thought out with an 8inch drop or raised gunwale. It means your tackle box and cooler isn’t going to drop into the drink so easily. It can also be used for a better stance when standing with a whopper snagged on the line.

In addition, two premium wide bucket seats as well as two fold-down fishing seats with pedestals, a 30-gallon aerated livewell with divider, timer, and recirculating system with pump out, and a locking center rod locker that accommodates up to 10 rods.

This Mod-V fishing boat delivers a great performance and it has an outboard horsepower range of 115-150 hp.

Another equally good bass fishing boat but more compact and basic is the Skorpion Stick Steer. Stick-steering at the bow of a boat gets you right into the shallows in front-row-seat style.

This compact fishing boat puts a lot of functionality into a wide and deep all-welded aluminum construction framed by a deck that gives you plenty of space for rods, drinks and sitting if you got a smallish behind.

With a modified V hull there’s good stability. Combine this with its stick steering system reward you with maneuverability along with a shallow draft and you’ll have a craft that’ll cruise the Ozarks as well as the Everglades.

Two fold-down fishing seats, four rod lockers, and an 11-gallon livewell round out the features on this affordable boat.

Next on our list is the Roughneck 1860CC, an 18-feet center console boat, ideal for fishing and hunting. The versatile Roughneck has been around for more than 25 years. It’s a beast. If boats were warriors, this one would be Spartan from 300.

Featuring an all-welded aluminum construction with the camouflage of your choice, this heavy-duty Jon boat can fish and hunt on land and sea. Well, it can go from water to land quickly on account of its durable frame–like vikings of old it’ll go up on land easily when chasing a downed duck or buck.

Made for many options like bow-mounted motors and pedestal fishing seat. Easy to trailer, hunt and cruise, this Jon Boat is also affordable.

It comes with a 19-gallon aerated livewell, a port rod holder that can accommodate up to three rods on the side and out of the way, and plenty of storage throughout the boat.

It has a 25-90 outboard horsepower range and when equipped with a 60 hp Mercury, it can reach a top speed of 32 mph.

Delivering the most horsepower in its class—a 90 hp max rating—together with the longest length and widest beam for this kind of boat, the Fishing Machine 1625 WT is a great all-around fishing and cruising vessel—its features make it ideal for entry-level boaters.

It comes with a convenient walk-thru windshield layout, two fold-down fishing seats along with six pedestal seat bases, an in-floor center rod locker that holds up to six rods, and a 23-gallon bow livewell.

This fishing machine has all basic electronics and accessories that make this boat something for the fisher and the cruiser. As a family boat you can comfortably spend the day with a cooler, doing some fishing, some tubing, some enjoying.

The size makes this one easy to haul up with a trailer and keep in your driveway too. All in all a smart boat that’s a credit to the Lowe lineup.

Cruise in comfort and style aboard the all-new SS230 RFL, a tritoon for families or just celebrating.

For 2021, Lowe decided to take one of their most popular premium pontoon boat deck configurations, the Rear Facing Lounge and bring it to the Super Sport lineup. The result is a luxury party barge with unmatched performance and enjoyment.

Standard features include a 9’ Bimini top, a bow chaise lounge with a dinette table, a Bluetooth enabled Jensen JMS3 stereo, and last but certainly not least, rear-facing lounges which give the name to this pontoon boat—they’re wide, comfortable, and offer the best seat of the house to either soak up the sun or enjoy the watersports over the transom.

Equipped with a Mercury 250 Verado Pro, the Lowe SS230 RFL zips through the water with a top speed of 48.8 mph.

A family-friendly cottage boat, numerous features on the FS 1900 make it the ideal vessel for weekend fishing trips as well as tubing and cruising.

Boasting dual consoles with full walk-thru windshield, this Fish & Ski Deep-V aluminum boat comes equipped with all the right amenities for a fun day on the water, including a 24-gallon recirculating livewell, a center rod locker, a Bluetooth compatible Jensen stereo, a 3-step swim platform, and lots of room to fish comfortably.

There is also plenty of seating available on the boat, and if watersports are an interest, an optional ski pylon can be added.

As far as maintenance goes too, the FS1900 has a pretty solid reputation for vessels that won’t often give you headaches as long as the simple procedures of care are taken when trailering, hauling up and storing with a cover on. There is a general resistance to sun by Lowe boat equipment, but covering the pontoon will noticeably extend the lifetime and maintain the quality of the vessel.

The Roughneck 2070SC is a great all-around fishing and hunting Jon Boat featuring a spacious side console layout, a 23-gallon bow aerated livewell, port rod holders that can accommodate up to three rods, and a variable-deadrise V-hull that “delivers a smooth and dry ride.”

But like all boats in the Roughneck range, we should probably lead with the fact that this jon boat is a beast. It’s a predator forged to hunt and bring balance to its kingdom.

One of the best catfishing boats on the market, Lowe’s 20 Catfish packs great performance, rugged construction, and all the right features for an epic weekend fishing trip.

This 20-feet all-welded, all-aluminum big-water prowler comes equipped with a massive 60-gallon bow livewell with dividers as well as a 16-gallon aft deck livewell with a bait bucket, which should be enough to keep those big catfish fresh until you head home.

Its spacious layout lets you move around with ease while the comfortable rear fishing bar ensures a fun fishing experience.

The 20 Catfish has a 90-150 horsepower outboard range.

From fishing to cruising to pulling tubes, the Lowe Sport Fish 212 Walk Thru is a versatile 21-foot pontoon boat packing plenty of features and loads of room for the whole family to enjoy a day out on the water.

Unlike most pontoon boats where you usually find a lounge seating arrangement in the bow, on the SF212 WT, Lowe has moved the lounge area to the aft section of the boat and has dedicated the bow for the avid anglers.

The bow comes with two folding pedestal fishing seats, a 13-gallon livewell, and convenient rod holders for comfortable angling. The optional trolling motor and fishfinder are also easily integrated.

Standard features worth mentioning are the 9’ Bimini top for all-day comfort, a storable dinette table with cup holders, a Bluetooth compatible Jensen stereo, and the wide and comfortable dual aft walk-thru chaise lounges.

The SF212 Walk Thru has a 9.9-150 horsepower outboard range and when equipped with the Mercury 115HP, it delivers a top speed of 30 mph. Enough to pull skiers or tubes. This has also great fuel efficiency for longer cruising.
