Sunday Boating
 

Anyone Boating In Clear Lake Or Lake Conroe On Sunday?

We were out today in Clear Lake. Big water in bay was sweet! If we go out tomorrow, I'll look for you. Tommy

Hey Tommy What's Up Man?

We'll need to watch the weather tomorrow. Come up in to Taylor Lake if you get down here. My house is at about 11 o'clock when you come in to the lake.

Is The Weather Going To Be Bad?

What Motors Do You Have In Boat And What Is The Size And Speed?

Just watched the weather on news. Maybe rain in afternoon. Are you pulling down or already here?

BE PULLING DOWN

They just kicked the chance of rain up to 80%.

We are meeting in front of Endeavour Marina around 11am. Come on out and play.

Rain
 

I GUESS I WILL JUST HAVE TO COME OUT NEXT WEEKEND:(

No Rain
 

NO RAIN NEXT WEEKEND FOR SURE:cool-smiley-026:

We didn't get out either. Rain was threatening and had other things to do so I won't have to do them when its sunny! Come by if you get to Clear Lake - Tommy

Gerrit and I get to run our boats on a Monday and Tuesday for Tres' class. I better get to sutdying.

I was wondering why your boat was still on the lift. Made a couple passes in taylor lake.Water was nice and smoooooth.

Ran Saturday. Just really tired of all the wind! Would like just a nice day of boating, but it will come!

today was nice,the bay was only maybe 2'ers. I ran to Todds dump and back between 60 and 70mph.

We ran to Top Water. Nice, maybe 2 footers until you got around April Fool point and they got up to 3's. Nice run. I am getting a little tired of the wind, though, it doesn't seem to end this year. Hope it all calms down before the Shootout. Where and what is Todd's Dump?

Todd's dump is right off of April fools point. Its and under water shell obstruction. Its marked with the first marker just off the point.

your right the water did get a little rougher around the point but we turned around to eat lunch at Outriggers.Guess e should have went to Top water.

Like in August when we will be raying for a breeze again.

Guess I should have made the trip when the phone rang yesterday morning.

Anyone going out next weekend? I hear my stepdad may be out in the old excalibur. If I go maybe we can make a run to top water. He never likes to get out in the bay. Maybe I'll build a motor and make a deal with him as boat partners.

Is that the big wooden pole that is right off the point? That is my marker to turn and run into Top Water. I always stay to the outside. I can't seem to ever get into Outriggers on weekends, very limited boat parking and going into the channel on the side at low tide makes me nervous, supposed to be some rocks on the opposite side.

Give me a call if you guys go out, we try to go somewhere on Sundays if the weather is good. I will PM you my phone.

Gerritm

Thats the one..Atleast thats the one that is on my chart where it says Todd's dump.

Outriggers is pretty hard to get into on the weekends:(I was talking to the owner yesterday and he said they are getting ready to add another 190' of dock and dredge the channel so you can get in and out very easily. Also said they have alot planned since Seabrook beach club closed.

I'll give you a shout next time im out. Gotta get the starter issue fixed.

Just use a wind up rubber band. :D:evilb::party-smiley-004:

I think you guys are talking about this spot. It looks like you should stay on the inside of the post/marker

Ernie

It doesn't make sense that you should be that close to the bank, but you will regret it if you don't! Todd's Dump has claimed some boats!

I belive I may have photos of some torn #6 skegs and some "scuffing" on the bottom of a 36 skater.

Ernie

Is it the purple and yellow from La?? I saw him limp in witha busted drive last summer.

You learn something new every day. i was told to hug the wooden marker pole with the sign on it to the outside, I always go tight to it. It sure looks like there is better water to the inside. I have been told that at lower tides that inside the marker can be shallow. Now I am confused. I have a track marked on my GPS that I follow.

What i really have a problem with is all the white pvc poles marking stuff. Way to hard to see at speed and the glare. Atleast paint them red or yellow or something.

They shouldn't be hard to see at the speed of smell. :evilb::evilb:

Thanks for the compliment. It looks like the speed of smell is pretty fast:D

Ok now go get us sodas. No, seriously.

What's under the pvc marker poles?

No idea...Maybe sunk boats or just shallow water,oyster reefs. I just stay away from them. Now i do know that just south of April fool point there is an old barge that is under water that is marked with a bunch of those poles.:angry-smiley-038:

It seems like more and more poles are popping up each year:(
It would be nice to see the core come thru and clean some of that stuff out or atleast correctly mark it.

I was told they mark oyster beds and that as long as you don't hit the marker you will be okay.

Really... Thats good to know.

So who is going out this Sunday?

WHAT'S THE WEATHER GOING TO BE LIKE?

Supposed to be awesome both days, but I am probably staying up here. :boat:

I won't be out for 3 weeks:angry-smiley-038:
