The Spoonpluggers Forum

Anybody know how these things handle big water?

There was a Spoonplugging husband and wife at last falls Chicamauga outing in Chattanooga that had one.
Can't remember there name, but I think they were from Ohio, around Cinnci? They had a truck camper and the Bumble Bee. Kenny or Wayne may remember who they were.

Bumble Bee's were made by me here in Tullahoma, TN. I have only seen one like the CL listing on the lakes around here.
There are a ton of there Bass boats around here still, pretty good boats! Bumble Bee has since been bought out by Phoenix Boats with there "Bee Line" boats.

Fran,

If I remember correctly, the only Bumble Bee boat owned by a Spoonplugger was Alan Bales. There may have been one other Bumblee Boat, can not recall.

From my experience with tri-hull boats (Troller) they were OK to a point; but the boats could not handle the big water like your AlumaCraft does.

Dennis Lamphier also had 1 in Green, last time i talked to him... but that has been quite awhile, couple years or more. Unfortunately, Alan has passed.
