If you boat above the Castle Rock dam, there is a huge sand dune in the curvy part of the river across from the state park. Pull up and sit quietly on the dune for a few minutes. The spiders are about the the size of quarters but there are thousands of them.

Then you run!

I'm not hangning there.

Ryan, I'm in for the 11th.

Well, seeing how i didn't make it off the trailer today, i'm game for this saturday on the river.........

The Dirty Tirtle is putting on a poker run on Castle Rock Lake on the 18..........

I wouldn't take anything bigger than a 35 footer on the river, especially if you don't boat it everyweekend and really know the shallow spots. Sand bars are constantly shifting and you can be in 2 feet or less of water no more than 20 feet to either side of the channel marker. It's a common sight to see people up to their shins in water pushing their 23 ft+ boats off a sandbar or shallow water. But crack a beer and wait for some help to show up....as for the damage to your boat, its only money right! ;)

buchnerbh22;

just curious, were you on Lake Nagawicki in Delafield about 2 months ago?

I will try the river if I follow cloud-master. Not sure when I can make it.

Rev'd up and I have set a date in September. It makes it easier for people to get a spot on the calendar. As of now, we are planning on a friday-saturday, spending the night out on the beach friday night. September 7-8. But if you guys don't want to take a friday off of work, or spend the night, there is no reason why i can't meet you guys at the docks on saturday, and show you around. I just figured, it is getting close to the end of the season come september, and would be nice to spend some time out there.

Sept 7-9 works for me, I'll try to make it then.

Is there any noise laws on boats in WI

Yes, in Madison some got tickets posted here on OSO. Oshkosh Thunder has also been hit last year but this year I heard no tickets. Milwaukee is very friendly, been pulled over several times and never been tested. When around marina's I use the silent choice so not to piss anyone off.
