OB boat question

Looking for a shallow water boat only used fishing in small creeks, was thinking about a 14ft. Jon boat with about a 25hp, what would you recommend?

depends on just how small the creeks are. a 25HP on a stripped down john boat is gonna fly...
and if the creek is shallow, you may have trouble with the motor dragging bottom.

If you expect to deal with logs or shallow water, get a jet foot. Makes it so much easier. You'll lose some power at the prop, so prob a 40hp is needed.
You'll need a tunnel boat too. So that the jet foot gets the adequate amount of water.
