your 25 hp eliminates the possiblility of all but Crab Orchard, Lake of Egypt, and Kinkaid....although you can launch on the 10 hp lakes and use the trolling motor. My choice is always Crab. You can catch gills up to about 7 1/2 inches just about anywhere along the weedlines or rocks. Or catch crappie under the bridges under hwy 13. Also, if you want something close you might launch that boat into the old carbondale resevoir at evergreen terrace just south of the arena parking lot if the wind isnt blowing much. You can get around it with your trolling motor easily. Lots of fish in it. The panfish are kinda small in general but it has BIG bass which is not really a very well known fact.
