Welcome aboard T E,
It's a good idea to paint the bottom of your boat when you leave it in salt water but I don't think it is needed for fresh. You may want to check with other boat owners or marina's in your area if there is alot of growth or vegetation in the lake to see if bottom paint is needed. Try to avoid painting if at all possible, it's pain-staking, messy and expensive. Usually it is an easy clean-up when you haul the boat out of fresh water at the end of the season, a little bleach and a pressure washer usually does it. I hope this helps and best of luck.
