[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]muskyhunter reminds me of Las Vegas. What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas...What happens with muskyhunter stays with muskyhunter..Great guy![/size][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]Launching was not a problem. We drove out on the gravel bar in the middle of the north marina and launch right into the channel just as slick as can be. No wading, no mud no nothin'![/size][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]We fished but it was a little windy and some rollers and waves all morning. We saw some surface activity in the SW corner and did a little casting but no dice. Like Jamie said 1 small wiper for the day.[/size][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]When we got back, I drove my truck back out on this gravel bar. We were using my truck because it has 4x4 and Muskyhunter's is a 2x. When I pulled up on the gravel bar I pull to close to the water and sunk my truck's front end to the frame! Stuck BIG TIME! Well there was no way even in 4WD was it coming out on it's own so Muskyhunter got his truck and after some good yanks on my 2" nylon strap, he popped me out. [/size][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]We got the boat out no problem but my truck frame was packed with Willard gravel/mud everywhere! After getting home and laying under the truck with a screwdriver and a hose I got 99% of the gravel/mud off the frame, suspension, tires, motor, etc. I will say this for Willard mud. I polished the heck out of my aluminum rims to a nice shine. They were nice and clean from the spinning in the abrasive mud.[/size][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]Thanks Muskyhunter for the great trip. You're a guy to run the river with![/size][/font]
