Some of those lakes were very picturesque! Thanks for posting the link!

Brad from the boat school ran some of those lakes a couple years ago in his TG. Looked like a cool trip

Run on all but Flathead. Okoboji in Iowa was the biggest surprise. What a gem.

Brad's story ran In Sportboat magazine. It was excellent.

Lake Powell if you never been try to.

I like Lake Havasu but do not see how it made the list more or less even a top 50 list. Hell New York has a lot of nice lakes way above Havasu..
