Thanks, Slab Slinger. That answers the question! I understand from a c.c friend of mine who fishes the Rez that it is owned by the City of Jackson. When there is a loss of life, maybe someone will wake up!

It's not just the bass boys......look at the boats some are buying to catch crappie..or cats..or bream...

Very true, know of several crappie rigs that cruise in the low 70s.

Boats are like guns or cars. Use em right, No Problem. It’s the guys behind the steering wheel that makes the decisions, not the boat. My boat might run 75, but I don’t mash the gas that hard. My truck might run 100 but I don’t drive it like that.

I just never could understand why people are in such a hurry fishing. Now I might go a little faster to get there but when I’m there. I just try and enjoy myself. Guess that’s why I don’t tournament fish. Think god know one was killed

there is a reservoir police force i see them regularly but its always in the main lake and close to the yacht club,main harbor, and pelahatchti bay. i have never seen one north of the first channel marker. my boat will do 60 easy but when im around others i pay attention at keep it where i still got good control. a boat completely on top of the water won't turn.

Set up right it will, have no problem turning my Cat at 63mph with nothing but the prop in the water.
Fact is we need to respect each other, plenty of things that can happen even in perfect conditions.

true, my searing wheel won't turn above about 5200 rpm. guess that's where hydraulic steering comes in handy
