Bella
Misty.....She's been around.
The
M/V Bella Misty is a Tiara 3100 Open Express style sport fisher. Many
people will notice that Bella Misty is a fairly large vessel for Lake Whitney,
especially compared to other boats that take out fishing charters. When I
bought Bella Misty, I had been fishing in Ketchikan, Alaska for four years.
And during that time, I had captained a 40ft. Viking, 36ft. Chris-Craft
Commander, 32ft. Penn Yan, and 30ft. Silverton for local Charter Boat Owners.
These years gave me a great deal of information on what I wanted in a Charter
Boat. First and foremost, I wanted a big, stable platform with lots of
open deck for fishing. Bella Misty's back deck is 11' wide and 12' deep
inside. The second requirement was that the boat had to be a single level,
no flying bridge. I wanted a boat that didn't act like a sail when the
wind started howling, not to mention all the cost associated with maintaining
two sets of controls. The third requirement was a modestly appointed
salon, and a fully enclosed private marine head. One unexpected fit of the
Tiara 3100 Open was that there is enough room in the cockpit that passengers
stayed in the action topside and rarely went below except for snacks, drinks or
to use the head. The boat met all of my expectations and exceeded them in
some areas. I believe that all of the criteria I used for choosing
the boat can be applied very well to Lake Whitey charter fishing. I feel
that the boat works very well for large family groups, and especially for
targeting Stripers and Whites with downriggers. I found this boat up in Michigan
on Lake Erie. The previous owner was retiring from big boat charter
fishing. He had been fishing on the boat on lake erie and Lake Michigan
for many years. I had it trucked to Seattle and then barged to Ketchikan,
Alaska where she fished Southeast Alaska for three years. My wife and I
were blessed with two little ones, one in 2007 and one in 2008. It was
time to settle down a bit so we packed the boat up, and had it put on the Alaska
Marine Highway ferry to Bellingham, WA and the trucked back home to Central
Texas. Lake Whitney was an easy choice for me. I had fond memories
of chasing Stripers with my dad on this lake. It was also a good fit
because of the deep clean water and diverse flooded terrain.
Bella Misty's size, stability, and long list of amenities allow anglers who
would rather not spend a day aboard a small open boat, to have comfortable and
enjoyable fishing experience. It also allows us to accommodate anglers
with disabilities and special needs that might otherwise feel uncomfortable
aboard a smaller vessel. A fully enclosed private marine toilet, salon,
and small forward berth make this the ideal boat for families, groups with small
children and also Lady Anglers desiring a nice day on the water.
