Personally, I would not recommend a small boat with low freeboard on your Lake.  Summer storms will catch you offshore and you could see a 4' to 6' chop when you least expect it.  The lake is 24 miles across and quite a chop can develop when fronts cross, or, as mentioned, when you get caught during a summer storm.  Look for a 24' center console if you plan to fish and you'll be safer on the lake.
