This is what it looked like on the lake today. This was taken at 11:30am. That boat is about 50 yards from me. (there is a boat right in the middle of the pic) A few minutes later another boat waved me over and asked if I could tow them to the ramp that their motor broke down. I did and went ahead and called it a day. The fog just wasn’t lifting. There were boats running wide open on the lake. I could hear them but couldn’t see them. Too dangerous.

Yowza. I was down at the coast chasing trout. Looks like I made the right call!

Been out there when it's that foggy. I won't launch until it clears up, some real idiots run on that lake.

These poor guys said they heard two beeps from the motor and it shut down. Wouldn't even turn over. And their troll motor was out of commission. They said they were waiting on a new one that was backordered.

Been there when the seats and console are dripping due to the condensation and have to idle back basically, but the bite was amazing.

Fished it last weekend in the cold and wind. Club tournament. Over 2 days, 17 anglers weighed in 120 bass with a cumulative total of 314.73 lbs. Big bass 7.68 lbs. Serious white caps on Sunday to boot.

Thank you for towing that boat. We were fishing a tournament down there one a day and you couldn't see your hand in front of your face. We didn't idle and we didn't get on plane but we almost run over several yak'ers.

As it turned out, I left too early! Seems the fog lifted not long after I left and there were some pretty nice catches by those that stayed!
