Research 2012 - Tracker Boats - Panfish 16

Panfishing perfection...Precise to drive and fun to fish!

Getting there is half the fun in the Panfish™ 16!

Precise stick steering up front lets you scout your way, then glide into those tight places where bass, crappie and bluegill hide. Two floor-level fishing seats give you a perfect “see level” vantage point to fish from.

You’ll find a whole checklist of other fishing features as well: a fishfinder, trolling motor, cushion-top aerated livewell with removable baitwell, two top-loading rod/gear lockers and rod holder straps.

A custom GALVASHIELD®-protected trailer with EZ lube hubs rounds out this high-value, family fishing package.
