Re: Flyfish Friendly Boats?
Contrary to what many might think, a t-top does not impede fly fishing in the least. Most people that are in the least bit proficient with the sport cast side-arm anyway, so the top is a non-issue.
I have fished off a 23' that did not have a closed transom or bracket, and there was still plenty of room behind the leaning post to fish with a fly rod. I can only presume that the enclosed transom model would have just that much more space to avail of.
The only thing I would suggest is that you replace all cleats and other obstructions with flush mounted hardware if the boat is not already equipped in that manner.
Depending on what vintage the boat is, you may also have to get some custom racks to hang fly rods under the gunnels, but that is simple and inexpensive.
