I will say this about Crescent. It is a typical shallow water lake that Florida is known for and it can get mean and nasty if the wind comes up. I was there 2 weeks ago and it was windy most of the time. If I had not have been in a bigger boat, I would have lost alot of fishing time. I saw a bass style boat at the CrappieUSA tournament that had 3 waves, or rollers, come over the back of his boat and he had a heckuva time trying to get back to a dock to bilge the water out. Both guys in the boat were sitting on the front of the boat to off set the weight of the water in the boat. That could have gotten real ugly, real quick!! Luckily, they made it back to a dock on shore, out of the waves, and were able to bilge the water out and only lost some fishing time during the tournament. I had some rollers that came over the back of my 19 ft Searay that same day. There is no way I could have stayed in the wind all day in a smaller boat..Just be careful if you are going out in a jon boat and stay close to shore if you think there may be some wind moving in.
