Fishing Mammoth Cave NP from a boat

I have fished through MCNP in a kayak several times, but the last time I was there, I saw a guy launching is aluminum bass boat at the ferry. Would it be worth the 1 hour 20 minute drive to bring my 17ft Lowe boat there to do some fishing? I know it gets shallow in spots through the park, so I would assume I would have to go away from the park and fish to stay in the deeper sections. I really like fishing it in my kayak, and I thought taking the boat would be fun too.
