Default boating trip



Needed to go to Oroville to order wife's Christmas present. 10' black
walnut butcher block desk top to replace a couple desks in the home office.
So towed the boat up. Spent the night at the Indian casino. Very nice
room, 100 bucks with tax. Unfortunately, the clerk (I guess) ran the card
for some extra charges. Visa fraud recognized the pattern. FedEx me a new
card. Boating was great. Lake was flat calm until afternoon. Was brisk
in the morning, and warm midday until the next storms clouds rolled in.
For cast was snow level at 2500' to start, rising to 8000' at end of storm.
Fished for bass with zero luck. Talked to the only other boat I saw, and
he only caught one. Day before the fish were biting, according to the guys
I talked to prefishing a tournament. Lake is still down at least 150', but
still over 500' deep in some areas. Have to use the low water ramp, which
has only 1 lane paved, instead of the normal 16 lanes. Worse part of the
new card, is changing the auto pay linked to the card.
