I definitely believe the water was clearer this year. In late July I was anchoring in over 20' of water and could easily see the anchor sitting on the bottom. In past years 12-15' was the deepest I...

Actually "rafting" constitutes 3 or more boats tied together. So with 2 or less you are free to anchor anyplace. However, keep in mind that required distances from other boats and shore are different...

There may be frost this weekend
My boat resides on a trailer, but I plan to be on the lake this Sunday for a daylong cruise. As much as I hate to think it, this will probably be my last day boating until next spring.
