I may go, but it's going to be hot, so I may just decide to hang by
the pool all weekend!
Great fishing report!
It really is a great fishing report if you fish Lake Lanier.

May 30, 2008

LAKE LANIER IS DOWN 13.6 FEET, AND LAKE IS STAINED AND THE CREEKS AND
THE RIVERS ARE STAINED & 75 DEGREES.


Pardon my ignorance, but in this context, what does "Stained" mean?


The water is red from the red clay runoff, this part of Georgia has lots
of red clay. It happens after a heavy rain and results in low visibility.

Used to see that when I was stationed in Mississippi - saw a lot of it
in Alabama - something about the SE and red clay.

Around here when you talk stained water, it's usually tannin from pine
trees - ugly brown color.

We have the same thing all along the coast and swamp lands of the
Caronlina's and Georgia, except it is a translucent and sometimes opaque
black. When you move to SC, the Okefenokee Swamp is worth a trip for
anyone who enjoys wildlife and nature.

I am sure that makes sense to everyone else, but it went right over my
head.

Georgia red clay can stain your bathing suit, shoes, carpet and clothes
real quick. I keep a separate set of crocs, on the boat, so I don't
track any clay on board the boat. I did buy a new pair of "fake crocs
today. They were $8.99 at target. It will be interesting to see how
they feel and hold up compared to the $29.99 pair I purchased at REI
yesterday.

You were probably sitting when you read it.

Tom was talking about seeing it in Mississippi, Alabama, and the SE. I was
just explaining that it gets around. You know, like moves.

.....never mind.

Well, probably everyone else got it but me, I am slower than most. But
you are correct, Georgia Red Clay is seen in Mississippi, Alabama and
the SE. Everyone in Miss. want to know who carried all that Georgia Red
Clay all the way over there. Can you imagine how many trucks it too?

Here is a great photo of the dangers of Georgia Red Clay.

I'm guessing that's not a Georgia cop. They probably have more sense than
to get in that crap.

On the other hand, it is a great picture, and I love having the ability to
order prints right there on the site.

You don't reckon that's an Alabama cop just gathering some Georgia Red for
his flower garden, do you?

No, he was not. He was gathering that clay to stain his barn with
Georgia Barn Red wash. It is the traditional color of barns in his
area.

Can you imagine how many ships it took to stock Viet Nam with its
supply of red laterite? The minerals it weathers from are common
worldwide and so is the clay. They have it in East Texas and South
Carolina and everywhere in between.
