I think the Mud Hole is about 25 miles south of Rockaway Inlet, so even further for you, right? I've only fished it once and that was on a 46' Bertram out of Freeport. We did have an estimated 800-900lb Giant on for 2 1/2 hrs...lost em right at the transom, was a 10,000+ dollar fish, bummer.
Hoski, I don't know what kind of boating expierence you have so it's hard for me to say. There are some "good" days where the "V" would be fine, hell my tin boat would be fine. Double check the distance from where you are launching and make sure you have PLENTY of fuel. Fuel may be a problem unless you have an auxiliary tank, not sure. The weather is a big concern too. You don't want to get caught that far offshore in a 20 footer in nasty weather. I ALWAYS know what the forecast is but sometimes unpredicted T-Storms do happen. Make sure all your gear and safety equipment is in top working order. I would have a kicker on the stern too. Do lots of research!! Then research some more.
Looking to go for Giants? Catching one of those on a V20 would be quite the expierence!
