If you ever go to HA HA Tonka state park, DO NOT GO PAST THAT COVE, been there, done that. ended up in 2ft, of water in like 1 second Sucked pretty bad stuck in a sand bar.

LMAO - I have done that too, only got stuck rocking back and forth on a boulder instead of stuck on a sand bar.:(

If your stuck on a sand bar or a boulder, at least you can rock under the cabin. :evilb::cool-smiley-027:

Too be honest with ya it would have made a bad a$$ picture.Me and a buddy and both our wives. Buddy got out of the boat and was standing knee deep in the water in the middle of the channel. We were in a 24' fourwinns.

I was on a hurricane deck boat - both guys got out to lighten the load and rocked it back and forth until we could slide it off the rock. Luckily is was very round and smooth, so was not a big deal. We ended up walking it back out. But you are right, we were only a few hundred feet past the entrance to Ha Ha.

I wish I still had the picture of my buddies fountain stuck on a sandbar that they hit at 45mph. You could almost see under the keel. He has a picture of a guy standing next to it in less than knee deep water. Boat looks huge in that pic. :evilb:

Possum Holler is at the 61mm..

LOL, been there as well in the jet boat a few years back...got a rock stuck in the impeller and had to limp home. Have also been all the way up to Warsaw in the bass boat...just a river up there and plenty of water if you can stay in the channel. There are quite a few establishments up there as well, but they don't have quite as much "energy" as those on the main lake.

The lake did its best to kill that boat.

LMAO, it eventually got sold to a guy that put it on a lake in Ga. Some how he sank it within a year or so.
