Last summer I bought a 21 SE used. The previous owner had taken beautiful care of the boat which was about six years old.

I am an avid striped bass fisherman. I primarly fly fish. I spend eight weeks in the spring and three weeks in the fall on Cape Cod. I have fished out of an 18' Lund Alaskan for the past fifeen years. I do a great deal of shallow water fishing for which the Lund is particularly good. By shallow, I mean really shallow. Given the severe tides we get, the many sand bars, and the miles of flats, the Lund is really the boat for that kind of fishing. I am keeping it for that activity.

On the other hand, as the water warms up, the fish move off the flats and that is when the Parker becomes my resource.

The boat is set up for fly fishing. Pop up cleats and lights.

I trailer it. For Cape Cod, that makes the most sense since the fish can be anywhere. I have a pretty good netword so "have boat, will travel"

I also fish Rhode Island, Connecticutt, and New York (Montauk), although as regards Montauk I fish out of a friends boat (the 21' deep V).

I do not have any pictures but I will post one next spring.
