I've been looking for some time for a boat that can both be used in
shallow water fishing typical, of bass fishing and also used in just off
shore areas, of the Great Lakes.
I've seen bass boats on Michigan and Superior but I won't.
Pontoon? Some kind of modified V?
What else.

A pontoon is not a horrible choice if you are serious about shallow
water performance and with big tubes they do fairly well in a
reasonable offshore environment. I will run with 18-20 foot boats
just about anywhere they want to go and I only have 19" tubes.
The 22 and 24" tubes do a lot better.

Don't see many pontoon boats in salt water around here, but there are
plenty of them on Connecticut's lakes. Seems like an ideal lake boat on
a reasonably sized lake.
