I've been out on my cousins 24' Harris pontoon this afternoon.
Launched at Vincennes Indiana and took the Wabash north. The river is
absolutely beautiful.and flows at about 5 mi per hr this time of
year. We went about 22 mi. North on the river and looked at the fish
eagles hanging around int he trees. It's not a sanctuary, but here's a
large group of them that have settled in one specific area for some
reason. Fishing must be good for them I suppose.

the 60 hp. Suzuki 4 stroke pushed the pontoon with plenty of power to
spare and sipped fuel at the same time.

I'm Jealous.


Anyhow we minorly rammed a sand bar (purposely) so his kids could get
off and do some looking around for mussel shells and what-not. Shoes
are required (or should be) on these sand bars due to fish hooks and
broken beer bottles. Also a good break to heat ups some casserole on
his coleman gas grill. after some lunch and doing some digging around
with the kids, it was time to head back.

It seems that pontoons were made for the river.

Anyhow, a good time was had by all. And it's supposed to be hot this
week, and If all goes right I'll take my barge over there next
weekend.

Y'all ought to do that more often. Life is too short to be bickering
in here.
