Is Paugus Bay too busy?

We had a place on Paugus Bay for 10 years. I thought it was an ideal spot overall. I was not a kayaker, but neighbors were, they mostly went out in the mornings on weekends before all the traffic.

To me, Paugus always seemed less busy than the larger part of the lake overall. The channel is a minor inconvenience at best, and it has the benefit of keeping many people OUT of PB. Too much hassle to go through the channel just to cruise around for many people.

Any place on the lake that is accessible to boats gets choppy on the weekends, mostly from July through August. Late spring/early summer, and September (or October when the weather allows) is fairly calm.
