Timmy...I was in the same spot as you three years ago. I have to say, at first the lake is overwhelming. Just too big to set out and explore. I found it best to sort of plan a day the night before with my chart, and set out the next day hitting a spot here and there. The best advice I can offer is to ask a lot of questions. Everyone is always ready to offer their advice as to the best places to dock, or their favorite place to throw anchor and relax. As time goes by, you will find your own niche. After three years, the lake seems so much smaller...easy to get around. But be careful not to become too comfortable too quickly. Lake Winni will stealyour prop when you least expect it. Rocks everywhere. Keep the chart in hand, and a good eye looking forward.
