My New Cabela’s Ranger Z520C!

January 21, 2016 by Clark Wendlandt

2016 boatOne of the great things about being a professional bass fisherman is that every year at about this time I get to buy a new boat, and I always know that when it comes, everything will be right on it.

First of all it is a Ranger Z520C. Without a doubt, Ranger has a reputation of building the best bass boat on the market. The thing I love the most about my boat is the attention to detail. Everything is rigged with the fisherman in mind – from the perfect layout to more than enough room for all my gear! As bass fishing has evolved over the years, we have seen an increase in the number of techniques and technique-specific baits, and rods and reels that a fisherman needs to carry in his arsenal. With my Ranger, I can put 20 plus rods in the rod locker (and I do!), and there is more than enough room for all my tackle boxes. In the back where the batteries go, there is also plenty of room for everything needed to run the boat. I am really blown away with how much I can store.

Secondly, my dealer, Cabela’s Ft. Worth rigs the boat out to fit my specific needs. There is no doubt when I pick it up that it’s going to be right, including all of my Garmin units installed exactly where I need them. Again perfect!

My wrap has changed just a bit for this year. It now highlights some of the great products I use from Cabela’s. I think it looks really good. Check it out!

Fishing & Hunting Texas

Let’s talk Garmin Force. Check out this video for a few reasons why I love this trolling motor.

Garmin Fish & Hunt #garminpro #fishgarmin #fishinghuntingtexas

The Garmin Force Freshwater Trolling Motor is the most powerful and most efficient motor available. It has the power you need to counter winds and currents with the efficiency to fish all day. Wireless chartplotter integration and built-in autopilot get you to fish, along with anchor lock to stay on them. Wireless foot pedal provides instant control and responsiveness - feels and steers like a cable-steered pedal.

Fishing was brutally tough so I was thankful for every bass I caught this week, but unfortunately it was only good enough to finish middle of the pack in 52nd. Time to put it behind me and gear up for the next one. #teamoutdoors #rangerboats #yamahaoutboards #powerpole #garminpro #thmarineteam #lithiumpros #truetimber #strikeking #sunline #ownerhooks ...

2020 Bassmaster Angler of the Year

2020 Bassmaster Angler of the Year It is hard to put in to words how it feels to have the greatest accomplishment of my career occur in the context of the most chaotic year of my life, and I imagine many of yours too – 2020. But in the midst of all the chaos, my job, while disrupted for a few months, resumed after a few months thanks to the efforts made by B.A.S.S to provide a full season for us. I am so appreciative to them and my fellow anglers for pulling together to make this happen. And … Read More...
