In a flat bottom with a small motor, go for it. If not, then no. I would beach my boat and walk the bank.
Turn to your backseater and say "Put a lifejacket on, I saw this in a YouTube video once!"

On my home lake there are areas of the mouth of creeks that are so silted in you can't even get through them with the trolling motor when the waters low for a half mile in one area and over a mile in another.
If you know it real good and have trolled in and out a few times looking real close for hidden stumps you can do it.
There's an area of my lake no-one else fishes because of this, i've one the majority of my torney on this lake out of there.
trim it and fly, but make sure you know what you are doing and are comfortable with it.
I've gotten stuck more than once and had to get out and push over the years lol.
i'm not worried about the sand on the bottom, it's the hidden stumps and logs you gotta be careful about.
only you can decide if it's worth it to you.
what lake? Tiltman, I know what you're thinking.........ROAD TRIP!  just scoot over and let one of these 2 drive. If there is any water they will get in and out on pad. lol Doug E you need to see my latest creation bro!

Trim it high and let it fly Only for money not a fun trip. I had to do it once on Caddo when they stopped letting water out of Lake of the pines. Only way to the ramp.
