Boat LAUNCH
A while back my buddy who has his boat on Lake Hartwell was runnin' between the channel markers in 58' of water when his boat LAUNCHED into the air, kickin' the motor all the way outta the water...I'm talkin' about a 24' Everglades w/a 250 Verado that went airborne!!...that was several months back...w/the continuing drought conditions we're having around here and the lake continuing to drop (now 23' below pool) this is a more recent shot of that same stump...when he hit it, it was 1/2" under the surface...no way he coulda seen it comin'...
 I know all the rain and snow everybody's havin' it's a PIA, but right now we'll take all ya got!!...

Ya know, I would cut the stump...but at this point they're sayin' it could drop to as far as 35' below full pool...that would mean another 12' of that thing'd be stickin' outta the water...
Keep in mind, when the lake is full the top of that thing is 15' below the surface...right now, it's better to be able to SEE the damm thing... ...and tsubaki...those Ambassador's are about all we use for live-baitin'...that day we caught several nice ones up to about 10-12 lbs

Dang REEL, I can't believe it is so dry there, we are back to normal here, just a 160 miles away.

Yep...weather dude was sayin' this mornin' that over the past 36 months we are 38" behind average rainfall for this area...they're referring to it as an "exceptional drought"...and it's pretty much affected a small area of upstate SC; Anderson, Greenville and Spartanburg counties...city of Anderson draws it's water from Lake Hartwell...recently stated they only haver 300 days left before they won't be able to draw any more water from the lake...
