No tents; does that also include cots? Broilies, or large umbrellas? Picnic shelters?
BTW great catches!

Yeah, there's not a camp site there or anything, at least not one on the water. But if you know the folks who run the places around there, they tend to be more inclined to let you use their property, so long as you behave yourself. At least that's how Zach used to fish the place hehe.

both times I have been there I man who works the area came down and chatted with us for quite awhile, he mentioned seeing people fishing our style many times in the past and was always amazed on how we do things.

Mr. Magee. That's the guys name that's a retired game warden bye is a cool guy. Also met a guy names Carey. He wants to get a few of us together and take us to 1 of the 3 ilands and we fish it for a weekend. I bet if we did that no telling what we would get.

Koi are carp, plain and simple. Well, not plain, colorful and pretty! lol
They will grow as large as space and food allows.
