How do Stroker bass boats stack up in the speed/handling category? Whats the good and bad on em?

The problem is that if people see you in a Stroker bass boat, they will think that you are a master baiter.

I give em an A+. They are fast, good in rough water for its caragory, and fish well

I was waiting on someone to say it...

They are a smaller company that builds more of a custom boat out of Tennessee. Haven’t seen any down here in Texas. Should be a well built performance oriented hull. Chub Bryant (owner) also has what’s left of the Hydrostream stuff (Venom, new Vegas, etc).

The Stroker is an excellent hull. Helped a friend set one up with a 300x a few years back and it ran well. Chub seems to be a good guy and businessman also. Called me a couple times to thank me for helping his customer then he invited me to come down and watch them launch their turbine outboard.

I have run with them several times and they are impressive. I have the 21' "A" boat and of the 3 fast bass boat brands, they are fastest by a lot when cleaned out set up to run like a sport boat. Loaded down to fish the 3 fast bass brands seem to be evenly matched. The edge going to Stroker again. To be fair, the Stroker guys tend to push the limits more. Most "A" and "B" boat guys don't seem to push for triple digits as much.

What has always impressed me the most about the Stroker is its ability to take a set and drive in mixed wind conditions. I have run side by side with them in the 90's and when the cross wind picks up the Ally nose moves around too much to push for more and the Stroker keeps on going. In truth, I have run next to the fastest and best Stroker pilots in the country, so driver skill is very much at play.

As with all boats they have certain things to look for when buying. I would reach out to the Stroker guys on Bassboatcentral for specific information. They have a forum dedicated to the brand.

We re rigged this boat after it was delivered to the customer new due to several quality issues with the set up and rigging. It was fast , however ill handling.
