  1. Stay home, there's at least 3ft of water you must wade through to get to the dock, they were in Chaumont bay yesterday putting sand bag around the houses where the put that new launch in before the public launch, out by long point that road that lLake'O washes against and the pond on the other. There they had a grader pushing the debrie off the road, everything from logs to trees to tires you name it, that launch was under water. The only launch I saw useable was at isthmus, in that back eddy they made, there's a cut to get through but I didn't know about depth, it's not that wide. Henchens is under water unless your slipped, and Henderson was up to the height of the parking lot. We drove over to the last marinia, that guy fixed my lower unit 2 years ago, we met up with him and he said we could put in there, but his ramp is steep with lawn between the drop off the ramp and my truck. There's no way to hold the boat back as that's on the steep ramp, with 15ft of wet muddy grass between the wheels of the trailer and the wheels of my truck!! Long story short I envisioned the shyten kabutal in the drink[emoji38] he also said he wouldn't go out now anyway, they rescued 2 boats since the start of eye season. First call they got was a boat had severe hull damage he hit something just under the water, and the water was coming in fast, the second boat had a big branch caught under the boat and also somehow it was lodged between the lower unit and the underside of the boat, the operator raised the lower unit  which tore the steel lines off the cylinders to raise or lower the drive unit, now he doesn't have a way to lower the drive into the water. I would have thought they would have lowered themselves, the guy at the marinia said they are a push pull cylinders? Ok that's a problem. There was a man in a green outfit, that wanted to see the damage on the boat with a hole in the hull, he said it's a 5mph speed zone in the bay till your out past Lime Barrel Shoals. He said to us it's best you just keep the boat on the trailer for a few weeks at the least!! So I did, when we came back to camp the water rose another 3" the water was under the boards on the park bench before we had looked and till we got back the water was over the boards and the bench sits a least 3-4" out of level and the boards were under the water. It freaken bad up there, and there's no way to really understand the situation untill you see it first hand!! I wish you locals the best!! You'll need it:sweating:

    Thanks I greatly appreciate it , guess I'll be hitting the bay for stripers! , maybe next year
