[#500000]Thanks for the report TD - sounds like a good time. Any trip where you catch some crappie is a good trip to me. They are the most prized fish I can think of - love the way a grundle of them look in a basket. Lovely.

In some regards I think the trolling motor actually aides in safety. If a huge storm came up and TD or other tubers are really far away from shore sometimes it can take hours and hours to get back to shore. If you get a charlie horse or start cramping up it can be even harder. If you have never gone too far away from shore and then had the wind whip up in the other direction (in a tube) you just don't understand. It can be quite the workout.[/#500000]
