Just an FYI that I saw a couple of new potentially deadly rock hazards just waiting to do some serious damage and thought I would share them. The one inside of callville on the north side of the bay is sitting right about 1.5' under water and I trolled right into it and smacked my skeg pretty good. I got lucky that it was more sandy than rocky but it could have been bad. When the wind is blowing a bit you just cant see the lighter areas very well. This spot is still submerged right now and is a bit southwest of that larger marked hazard right there in the middle.
The second and most deadly looking hazard is near the point between callville bay and water barge cove. This little shelf looks like it is going to claim an outdrive here pretty soon. Off of that point there are currently two marked hazards. This new hazard is basically right in between the two marked hazards but closer to the outermost marked hazard. This thing is about 12" under and is a serious ROCK shelf. I found this guy yesterday and could just barely make out the lighter water and it was glass out. I imagine just a bit of wind will make this hazard impossible to see in time and it is right in a heavily traveled area. I usually haul ass right threw there in between those two marked hazards on my way to LVB.
Be Careful out there. [fishin]
