Bass Tracker Pro Team 175 TXW Top Speed | Mercury Spitfire vs Mercury Blackmax

Today I test my Bass Tracker Pro Team 175 TXW Top Speed. I also do a comparison between to popular props for this boat, the Mercury Spitfire and Mercury Blackmax. I cover the differences in the props up close, test the holeshot, and calculate prop slip. You can use the information in this video to use on your Bass Tracker Classic XL, Pro Team 175 TF, or Pro Team 175 TXW Tournament Edition. Thank you for watching my video!

A little about me:
I am James McBurnett. I live in the great state of Texas. Probably not where you would think, but I am located in the panhandle region. I moved here from Alabama and work as a Chemical Engineer in the area. After being here for a few years, I decided to get back to my roots as a fisherman. It is quite challenging in my area to find a body of water to fish. The closest lake to me is about 40 miles away.

After a couple more years, I realized how much I love fishing and wanted to share it with the world. Clearwater fishing was born. I wanted to teach people all about fishing. This includes rods, reels, fishing line, bait, lures, largemouth bass, crappie, walleye, catfish, bluegill, boats, boat trailers, outboards, and anything else related to fishing.

I also wanted to share my fishing experiences as well. To be entertaining, knowledgeable, comical, and FUN. This channel was created out of the love of the sport of fishing, and I plan to keep making content that represents that. Thank you for watching this video and reading a bit about me. Give me a shout out in the comments below and let me know you read this. Now get out there and go catch you some fish.
