The Verado and altitude go together like fish in water. Most motors loose horsepower at altitude the Verado runs the same anywhere. Its a 4 stroke so its quiet and fuel efficient.
In the early 70's my cousin introduced me to fishing. He would take me to private ponds and we would catch Bluegills, Crappies, and Bass with a bobber and Flea Flies. He taught me about varying the depth to find the fish, and to keep the jig out of the weeds.
