A little research homework may save you some aggravation as well as money spent buying somthing you end up disliking and new 20 ft boats can run as much as $50,000 or more by the way. If you intend fishing rough water such as that encountered on Lake O  or even some of the Finger Lakes the hull design of the boat is critical. You'll want something that is a deep V hull, wide across the transom and a deep free board.  Many aluminum boats don't meet those criteria. There is nothing worse than spending a significant amount off money and then discovering that you can't use the thing you purchased as intended. Just something to think about beforehand :)

Can't go wrong with a Starcraft.  Best deal out there dollar for dollar.  I can say that as I've owned or been in possession of the major aluminum manufacturers (including 4 Lunds).

There's a sea nymph GLS 19.5 on Buffalo Craigslist.  I see several of them on Erie and Ontario.  Had one for a few years and it was a perfect all around boat, great lakes/river/fish/ski.  Relatively inexpensive too.
