So, here I am back on the boat to ride it out. Should be fun.

Not the safest place you could be.

It's safe enough. I am in the back basin here and it's somewhat
protected. If we get the winds they are predicting, I'd rather be down
here to check the lines on the boats rather than being home worrying
about them.

Besides, it's fun.

I am glad I put the boat to sleep last weekend, including putting the
winter cover on. We are seeing heavy rains and winds tomorrow are
expected to come close to 50 mph.

Our friends with the Lyman had hoped to put the tarp on their boat
tomorrow.................key word 'hoped'....;-)


Went out boating today. Sunburn weather. Hate them water weeds. Had an
overheat today. The mossy stuff plugged up the input end of the heat
exchanger. Franks track is a flooded island and is about 8' deep. With
weeds about 2' below the surface. No Black Bass, lots of little stripers.
Decision for tomorrow. SF Bay and halibut and stripers or mokelumne river
and stripers and salmon and LM bass? Supposed to cooler tomorrow. High
30's at night, 70's daytime.


I went out to look at the Lake during halftime of the Ohio State game. 5-7
footers.........surfs up.

Here is a reading of a buoy further out on the Lake:

The Lake should kick up even more overnight if these winds keep up.
