Default Re: Two pix-Two reasons

Well enough to get to the ramp a mile from my house! The truck actaully pulls better than you'd think-I have the five speed with the towing package. Never an issue at the ramp. Obviously, braking suddenly at high speeds with this combo, even with the trailer brakes, would probably be a little harrowing.
Going anywhere far, I'd much prefer my buddy's Diesel F250-it's like the boat's not even there.
I bet this chilly rain has the bass licking their lips for the fall run around the point out at MTK. They come in very thick if you hit it right-it's almost like you could walk across their backs. Makes me think of what this fishery was probably like all over a few centuries ago.
My favorite fishing out there is from the rocks in my waders-the small boats chasing fish in the fall have gotten pretty wild. Lots of light tackle guys from all over in the fall. I actually saw from the beach a small parker get tossed to its demise a few years ago when he chased a school a little too close to the rocks. It's definitely a place to respect in a boat.
