heading to the weirs
 

weirs or bust

bet that hurt a lil

diden't make it

Wow!! I bet his a hole bit a hole in the seat!!!

Lol. That's funny.

Last Sunday...SW Winds 25-30 two 14ft boats at landing...

NO OTHER BOATS ARE IN WATER!!.... I said dude your going to sink, where are you going...

They said Weirs.

Boat would have eaten that chop if he had a yeti on the bow instead of that blue cooler.

Should have adjusted his trim tabs

Or, he would have died from massive head trauma if the Yeti came down on him!

Seems liek you always saving from sure death that's headed to the weirs

Only if he had inside out frozen ice

I think W is just pointing out the folly of smaller boats running from Heberts to the weirs under those conditions. Stiff W and SW and NW winds are so common and can appear and turn the lake to a mess so quickly that small aluminum boats are a dicey deal.

The Grand Bayou weir is what, 10 miles from Heberts? My limit on distance from the launch/protected water is 3-5 miles in my alumacraft V16 because that amounts to < 15 minutes running back at 20 mph and < 30 minutes if rough conditions require a slower speed. 10 miles in Big Lake's worst slop in a 12-16 ft aluminum boat is a bad idea. 3-5 miles leaves one in much better shape if things start to look ugly.

Over the years, we've made a few 3-5 mile runs in sloppy conditions, and there is no way I'm signing up for a sloppy 10 mile run.

What is that dumb*** thinking in that first picture? Funny pic. I guess getting to the weirs 1st...lol!!!

Dang guys it was a joke!!!! But yeah nasty he wanted to be there earlier then anyone!!

that's funny!!
