Welcome


Welcome.

I created this blog to document the sights of our boating season
for our family and friends to follow.

Enjoy the tour.

I'll get an early start at the update this week.  So far, I could almost copy/paste last week's post.

The lake was rolling from a stiff south wind last night.  Therefore, an early wake-up was nixed in favor of some extra time under the covers.  After getting up and tending to showers, morning walks, and a little cleanup on the boat, the weather seemed to be favorable for a late morning troll outside the harbor.

So we ventured out in what looked like a little haze.

Kathy took the helm while I readied the rods as we were intending to set lines near the harbor mouth.

So there we were, lines set, less than a mile from shore...wait a minute, where's the shore?

Oh well, so what's a little fog?  Onward. 

Water temp 55 degrees at the lure?  Check.

Bait in the water?  Check.

Fish around the bait?  Check.

Fish on?  Nope!

So after a couple hours.  Back to shore and some visibility.

Leaving the fog behind.

Passing the Ludington fire boat dragging the harbor.  Maybe a training exercise?  I'm not aware of a real emergency but, could be. 

And one of the resident swans.

Arriving at Harborview Marina.

So another successful outing (we made it back under our own power).  We have to do a little business up in Manistee this afternoon so will take in a little casino action and down a few crab legs off the buffet this afternoon. 

Until tomorrow...or whenever the mood strikes me.
