I came out of a creek full of timber one night after fishing solo and ran across a boat afloat with nobody in it. It was floating off in the trees about 40 yards from the lane the boats run this creek in. I cut my motor for a minute to see if I could hear anything and didnt so I left. I ran slow with my spotlight gleaming as I did NOT want to run across ANYTHING FLOATING in the water! Never heard anything so I assume someone's boat came untied from wherever they had it although there aint supposed to be any boats left overnight on this lake. Kinda had me a little spooked that night.:o
