Heck with the wheel!
I have a pontoon boat and did the wheel thing, but with almost inevitable evening winds that are found on those lakes I am going to buy a fat cat style tube for those lakes. We went a few weeks ago and had a bugger of a time rowing against the wind back, and I much rather would have had a tube and walked back.
My vote is less gear, less weight, keep it simple and buy a tube for those trips.
If you do go with the wheel setup, I would suggest 2 wheels with wide tires vs one. With the sand, one is too hard to deal with.
