Cool thanx.....I kinda figured it out, but my biggest fear is shallow water??? Boating on Lake Michigan all the time that is not an issue. I just want ot make sure to say away from any shallow areas that could be trouble. Is the run for the most part trouble free in that area????...Thanx BZ

Sunbuns: come into the canal strait at it do not round it off.Stay to the center and right in the canal also headed in. Stay to the center and laft head out too. It's narrow but plenty of too
To pass doing it that way.
The rest Of the stops are no problem with that. Just use your markers in the mouths of the rivers.

Yes the lake it like 12-15'. the biggest issue is coming into and out of the rivers and don't try to get to the banks on the lakes. There is no bank its swamp. but for the river part there is Chanals markers there. USE them they also have lights on them at night. I'll show anyone who wants to know details.

Obnoxus told me he wants to try that thing where you catch a catfish with your arm as bait. He was also wondering if it would be in bad taste to KEEP said fish on his arm for the whole weekend? Or would people think he was weird?

All the harbor/ canals etc are about 10-12' here. The depths are fine. I run my 40' trawler all over down Here. Not much current in the rivers at all.
