Hey everyone. . Going to get my boat tomorrow! (2004 crestliner 1600 super hawk) anyways... thinking of making a cd for the boat... here's what I got so far... (I'm love the movie Top Gun btw)

Track 1. Danger zone -Kenny loggins ( this is the song I will play as soon as I get the boat loaded and I'm ready to go WOT!

Track 2. Immigrant song - led Zeppelin (son reminds me of the old viking war ships... maybe cuz I'm a MinnisOta Vikings fan :p)

Track 3. We will rock you - Queen (this song will be played as I'm slowing down coming into my fishing spot ;) )

Help fill in the rest...




Last 2 songs will be

Track ??? We are the Champions -queen (hopefully this will be ony way back with a live well full of fish)

Track ???? Top gun anthem - ??? (The sweet electric guitar solo song on the movie )

:p

I usually redo my boat song list every year. Mine is on my iphone connected to the stereo so I can have a lot. I don't do a ton of fishing but will throw a line out when the kids are playing. My song for leaving the ramp is I'm so fancy. Then there is Beachin'. There are a bunch of old songs that I will be swapping out for new ones. Sail on sailor will always be on there for cruising.

If you're fishing with bobbers for panfish, then you need Easy Listening. If you're pounding the water for muskies all day, you need jammin' music to keep yourself pumped even when it feels like your shoulders are going to fall off.... :rockon:

If your fishing is a little crazy, how about "Madman on the water" by Elton John.
Heard it on the radio today and thought of this thread LOL!

Well if you are fishing and actually catching, a rare thing for me indeed, that how about "Another one bites the dust" by Queen. :eek:
