Is that Okatibbee or the Gulf??? I see white caps!

Wind out of the north or south and it can get pretty ruff for no big water than it is.

Shallow lakes always seem rougher

Scott, what number campsite are you in and can you keep your boat in the water there? I like campsites where I can keep my boat in the water and charge it when its not in the water. That way I don't have to launch it each time I go out. The low water levels limit those sites this time of year.

I'm on #47. I don't think there's any sites where you can keep your boat in the water now. They've dropped the water level 4 ft recently. 39 has a pier close to it but I bet it's not 2 ft deep there. I don't know about Loblolly but I'd figure it's getting shallow in there too.

I quit at 10:30 with 11 keepers. I might try them again later. The wind's done got up again.

Not bad for a cool windy day
