Why are they called bass boats? What advantages do they offer serious

They also need to go 60 MPH!

Why? To get to the opposite shore when a shore fisherman there lands a big
one?

One of the lakes I most like fishing on is 38 miles long. If your cabin is
in the middle, that's 19 miles each way. Some of the best places to fish
are only 15' across 10 miles up, others 12 miles down the lake. I would
hate to use a pontoon boat on that lake.
