Hey guys,
May 30th was the maiden voyage of my little boat at Pigeon Lake.
When we arrived the water was quite rough, and the wind was blowing pretty good,
But that wasn't going to stop us.
With my buddy in the boat with a two way radio and one with me in the truck
(Thanks for that suggestion)
We got it to the water and got her floating relatively easily.
Motor started right up and I parked the truck as my buddy waited at the dock.
The bost was bobbing pretty good.
Headed out towards the north shore,
That was a fun ride.
ALthough it was windy and rough we still managed to boat (love that term)
20 fish through the day, Mostly Walleye.
Not a a bad inaugural outing.
Also got pretty windburned and sunburned.
But still had fun.
Loading the boat took a couple tries, I think it was because the trailer was too deep, but we managed to get her on the trailer and hooked and pulled without taking too long.
After 8 hours or so in the boat and bobbing up and down, that sensation lasted a few hours after.
Thanks to everyone who offered tips and suggestions.
Shouldn't be long before I am a seasoned boater.
