Is that fact or fiction? When Predator and I were out the other night we discussed that very issue. Is the island indeed an artifical reef made from tires or is it the remains of a test dike built when the impoundment was being built or just a big pile of dirt left over? As big as the island is, one can only imagine the number of tires need for that pile. I do know that on numerous passes the other evening, we bounced our lures off the bottom of the island and hooked up on a few fish. We didn't snag up once on the bottom. Does anyone have facts to support the construction of the island?<br><br>
