    If you dont go, you wont know, and you got to have bait in the water.

      Hope you have a good trip.

      It will be interesting to see how you balance granny's rocking chair on top of the yaks!

          I've never been there. How does it compare to DCL in Md?

            My bearings are checked and repacked/replaced every two years. Sparebearings and tire yes, hydraulic piston jack, wood blocks, work gloves and old comforter for laying or kneeling on if needed.

                It is larger than DCL. I have never been to DCL. Wife has been there and says SML is larger.

                    SML NOT CROWDED. Especially down in the Dam area where we always stay.

                      Gosh, you must be a water sign (Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces) with all those boat products. Have fun. I so envy you!

                        Yes Peggy, I am a Scorpio. Now Optimus Prime is hitched up ready to go.

                        And then I have a 19 foot runabout rented there already for 2 weeks for tubing and skiing. After going up for 6 years we know what it takes to have a good time.

                          Pretty much ready. The new Propel will get a real dose of fresh water for the next two weeks. The SMB and LMB are already trembling. Stripers too.

                            Good luck! I was down there a few weekends ago and the lake was in great shape. I didn't have a chance to fish but from what I'm seeing from friends on facebook you should have a good shot at stripers!
