if you run into that "field" between the big tree and the tree line and cut to the right... I bet he found that one single stump that is about 20 yards east of the treeline and about as big as around as the hood of my tahoe.

Sinkey you can run in there between the Island and the tree line but dont do it if you don't know where every stump is @ cause it will split a boat in two in that shallow of water.

On the left I just shut down by the big tree Barrett is talking about and idle back. I bumped several in there 3 weeks ago and said it's not worth it.

YOu can run all the way to the island. Ive done it 100 times with no problem. Ive even seen it dry. You kinda wanna make a S when running into sand.... go to the right then back to the left and then back to the right (between the big tree and the treeline) When you go between that big tree and the tree line....


There is a stump way out from the tree line in the open flat that is a giant and prob just about 8 inches under the surface now... maybe less. When you cut in just make sure you dont get too close to the tree line when you hang a right.

First move the trailer to Jordan Park Boat Ramp. If the motor still runs get a big water pump (bilge) fire the boat and pump and get it to the ramp and load it on the trailer.

Unless he ripped the A$$ end out....It didn't sound pretty when he hit it. And from an earlier report the passenger consol was destroyed. Other than that a flat bed barge with a crane. Maybe they have something at the marina....

Hope he had ins.

what the hell did he hit to tear the console up? Did he veer into the trees after hitting the stump?

I assume the passenger as the boat stopped as soon as it hit the stump then they trolled to the island.

That sucks. I wonder what type of boat they were in. I guess he will want to buy a Progater Bass Boat in the future. 10-year stump guarantee!!

where is the location of this stump field you are talking about? where is sands? is that up buck?

i know north of the lone oak bridges is a stump field. rolled over a couple idling up in there. even that is scary. couldn't imagine hitting one planed out.
