The 2026 BASS BUGGY® 16 XL Select kicks off the fishing pontoon lineup with a slick redesign and packs everything you need to make a day of fishing even better. This is the original fishing pontoon, sporting a new style and many more features to wow your fishing buddies.
This seven-passenger fishing pontoon hits the water with new console and lounge designs. Get three extra cubic feet of storage thanks to clever backrest cut-outs. The redesign also adds a seat in front of the driver console, phone compartments, and four more cupholders. Cast from the shade of a standard 7' bimini top in one of the two folding fishing seats. Find your spot on the lake from the decked-out driver console, which comes with its own rod holder.
The original BASS BUGGY was the first fishing pontoon ever made. The 2026 model takes that heritage and runs wild with it.
