Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE ENGINE

A compact hull with serious propulsion

The Mirrocraft is fitted with a 40hp Evinrude E‑Tec tiller outboard, giving the small boat reliable performance across an eight-hour day — enough power for straightforward cruising between productive water and for working a trolling setup.

THE GEAR

Electronics and systems for finding fish

Onboard electronics include a fish locator and a trolling motor, tools that let anglers search and present effectively from a compact platform; a livewell simplifies short-term fish care while on the water.

THE COMFORTS

Simple, safe day-boat setup

The outfitting emphasizes a day of fishing: seats for a small crew and life jackets provided by the operator mean the focus stays on the catch while basic safety and comfort are covered.

What the day feels like

This is a focused, full-day fishing experience: an eight-hour window aboard a 16' Mirrocraft where the boat’s motor, trolling setup and fish finder are the day’s key tools. The operator supplies the boat and its systems, seating and life jackets so anglers can concentrate on locating and landing fish across a continuous day on Delavan’s waters.
