Buying a Jon boat and I'm seeking help where I can find smaller lakes and ponds to bring it. Looking for decent producing waters. I'm not looking to go to the Canadian border or anything, in and around the Catskills, western NJ...anywhere you all might think would be a good place to bring my 14' Jon boat...thank you. P.s. the boat is trailered so it would be helpful to have decent access...thank you

I'm most likely going to buy this Jon boat (used) and Im seeking some pointers/advice. First, price: We settled on 1200 bucks..includes trailer, small outboard, and trolling motor ...also a humminbird portable fishfinder, two clamp-on seats, oars and oar locks. Seems like a decent deal...what do you think? Also how do you think she'll handle on a lake? Not just the shallows, but the water. I know its flat bottom gets you into the sweet spots..just wondering here. Anything I should look for as far as the boat itself? Any advice most helpful..thanks
