If you go into lake Marion and Moultrie.....REMEMBER THE STUMP FARMS!

Even if the stumps don't get you....there are huge waterlogged logs running
through both lakes at any depth that USED to be chained down to the bottom
when the lakes were formed....

The fishing is great, though....so they put up with it.

I swear I think all the lakes in the south east have stump fields. Both our

have long since rotted off at the water line. I know Hartwell and Kerr both
have stumps as well.

Money...it was done on the cheap.


On the St. Johns River near Green Cove Springs, the "unseen waters" near
the shorelines are full of pilings that represent the remains of docks
long gone. Some are just enough below the surface to play havoc with any
sort of prop on any sort of drive. Maybe it has changed now, but when I
lived and boated in NE Florida, no effort was made to mark any of these.
There are other parts of the river with submerged pilings, of course,
but there were a hell of a lot of them concentrated just north of the
Shands Bridge.

I'll agree money was the usual reason trees were left standing on some
impoundments, but according to the link I posted, the Santee Cooper
project was declared "necessary for national defense" during WWII. Why,
exactly, I don't know, but there was a rush to complete it, leaving trees
chained to stumps.

During the Depression, when the lakes were created, the loggers were in the
same shape as the rest of the country, starving to death. They lacked the
resources to get the logs out of the lake bed before the lake filled up
because there was noone to buy the logs at closed lumber mills across the
country. Noone wanted the logs.

So, in their infinite wisdom, the Santee-Cooper state-run power company
decided the cheapest way to get rid of the unwanted lumber was to chain it
down to the bottom of the lake with large log chains, never thinking the
logs would eventually shrink enough to float their way out of their bonds.

I lost an Evinrude 70, ripping it right off the back of a trihull runabout,
to one in the channel of Lake Marion about where I-95 goes over the lake,
back in the 1970s.

The fishermen are all thrilled that these terrible hazards of floating logs
and rotten tree stumps 6" below the surface of the lake in vast forests
that never even got cut down are the way they are. The rotting forests
make fantastic breeding grounds for the land-locked striped bass both lakes
are world famous for, breeding lots of real monsters with all that cover to
protect the young from its parents and predators. The hazardous lakes also
keep other boaters away from these fishing grounds by tearing up their
boats and making boating so hazardous it keeps them away to easier venues
or down near the deep water at the dams, leaving thousands of hectares of
excellent fish breeding and fishing grounds unmolested by spinning props.
They wouldn't have it any other way....

No waterskiiers, for long anyways, in the stump fields! Matter of fact,
stump fields even solve the problem of drunken fishermen in 500hp

You can easily drive through the stump field with your 3hp little kicker

All artificial lakes in wooded country have stump fields. Wisdom
around the local Iowa lake is that you need three props, one on the
boat, one in the boat, one in the shop getting welded and ground.
Props are always easy to remove. They are never on there long enough
to get sticky. As for waterline, these Iowa lakes are for flood
control and vary widely in depth from time to time.

To impress the bass?

Hey, my best fishing is done from a canoe or wading, but then, we don't
have much big water around here. 70 MPH in a boat, might be a little too
thrilling for me, but whatever floats their boat. It's my understanding,
70 is a little on the slow side these days with bass boats breaking the

The woman's name *usually* is spelled Esther, not Ester. Esther is a
biblical heroine. Ester is a derivative of an acid in which one or more
acidic hydrogen atoms are replaced by an alkyl, aryl, or similar group.

Sunken Logs/Marked Gas
 

Even if the stumps don't get you....there are huge waterlogged logs
running
through both lakes at any depth that USED to be chained down to the
bottom when the lakes were formed....

Hmmm, I guess I should take my SCUBA gear along when I head out on the lake
with the pontoon boat. I might find a couple of OLD logs that are good for
Lumber recycling or maybe I can trade 'em off for gas money ;-)
BTW, I found two local places that sell MARKED gas w/o the highway tax (-45
cents Gal) for $ 4.91 Gal. One is 87 Octane and the other (farther away) is
92 Octane. THE local marina is charging ( $ 1.79 liter, CANADA. eh) = $

I've never figured out why anyone not competing in a big money tourney
would want a 70 mph bassboat.

Even if the stumps don't get you....there are huge waterlogged logs
running
through both lakes at any depth that USED to be chained down to the
bottom when the lakes were formed....

Hmmm, I guess I should take my SCUBA gear along when I head out on the
lake with the pontoon boat. I might find a couple of OLD logs that
are good for Lumber recycling or maybe I can trade 'em off
for gas money ;-) BTW, I found two local places that sell MARKED gas
w/o the highway tax (-45 cents Gal) for $ 4.91 Gal. One is 87 Octane
and the other (farther away) is 92 Octane. THE local marina is
charging ( $ 1.79 liter, CANADA. eh) = $ 6.76 Gal. for the Hi Test
gas !! Leaving for Iowa on Wed. to P/U the boat.





Those logs have been soaking in lake water since the mid 1930's. I doubt
you can pick them out of the water in one piece anymore.

Nope. Love of speed. Can not drive 100 or even 80 legally on the road, but
is OK on most bodies of water. Some just have a need for speed. Is why I
do not own those 140-180 mph cars anymore. As I would still see if I could
go 141-181 mph.
