... as you and bro polo say... it takes experience and time to become proficient when dealing with the wind.. the one big lesson I have learned is caution as you displayed in being so cautious in getting me in a tube for the first time..
my main point on my last comment was that the wind that did kick up gave me some problems.. but nothing that with a little thought worked my way around.. the trip into shore was harder than the first time out simply because of the wind.. as bro polo stated at times it felt like I was doing okay and the next it felt like I was at a standstill.. either way, I just kept kicking and worked my way thru it...
.. there is no way that I would even think of launching under wind conditions as described by bro dr.. if it is that strong to give a semi problems there is no way I could handle that on the shore much less on the water.. []
.. lastly, as bro polo states it is great exercise.. I was sore the next day from using muscles I dont normally use.. but..
as I stated before.. I would not trade the experinece of that day for anything.. the only thing that would of made the day better is if I had been able to land a fish. but that too comes with experience.. []
