Are you interested in Remmel Dam to Rockport about 1 P.M. on Sunday? Mike Beebe will join us and he may or may not be in his ww boat. I'll be in a rec boat.

Also, I could meet you Saturday for a paddle around Buckville. I'd be interested in exploring wildlife,flora, etc. near shore. Not taking off for an big island out in the middle of the windy lake. Although I will island hop for swimming events and crystal hunting.

I'd like to do Buckville if I can find a non WW boat. What kind of float is Remmel to Rockport?

During generation (probably when we are there) there are a couple of washed out shoals and maybe two or three places to play. Its about five miles, have to do some paddling at the end as the river is slow there and then you have to go over the Rockport ledge. If you fall out of your boat going over the ledge, you stand up and grab it.

Want to fish?

If you're committed to Buckville, I may be able to borrow you a rec boat. Do you have a paddle or should I borrow that too?

Well I am just not sure about what is on with the fam on Saturday. That is why I cannot commit to that day. I have committed Friday for sure though. Anything.

Sorry, that would entail a +200 mile trip for me on Friday and then a +130 mile trip for me on Sunday.

I was going to stay at Buckville or Malvern on Saturday night and save a hundred plus miles of driving.

Hope you can find someone to paddle with on Friday. Sorry it didn't work out, this DID start out as a saturday paddle for me.

I'm taking my son to Camp Tanako (Lake Catherine) Monday morning 7/7.
Would like to take the rec boat and play a bit somewhere. Have never done Dragover and would like to, but anything would be fine. Keep me posted.
