Good job being alert Steve. Sorry to hear about the waves PK, that is the reason I don't like going out on weekends. I remember that big boat that was going slow when it passed us last time we were out and how quickly those waves got to be a pretty good size. Glad I did not see what would happen to my small bass boat if that boat had really been moving.

Wake boats need to be banned. Any boat whose design criteria is to make a huge wake is too dangerous to be on a public lake. If one of those boats passes by people in a jon boat down they will go. You recreation cannot include drowning your neighbors and sinking boats.

Been catching some crappie on PK next to docks.

So what happens if it flips upside down?


From Genesis: "And God promised men that good and obedient wives would be found in all corners of the earth."

Then He made the earth round...and He laughed and laughed and laughed!

Wake boats make bigger wakes than other boats? I did not know that.
