kelly Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 So a few weeks ago my son and I and two others were rocketing upstream in one of Lilleys Landings jon boats when I absent mindedly piloted the craft over the inlet by the roundhouse just above Lilleys. Now, I never go there because I have this fear of death by water and I had seen the plume of bubbles hit the surface several times and I had always wondered if it would sink a boat. Well I am here to tell you it did not. Well it boiled up right in front of the boat and we hit it at a blistering 13 MPH (GPS onboard) I yelled like I was hog bit (that's another story) but the boat only sunk slightly when the fat boy at the outboard end of the surfboard had his turn at the pipeline. We all had a good scare and later a good laugh and it was quite a show for the other boats close by.

Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted October 24, 2012 Root Admin Posted October 24, 2012 I've always wondered about what would happen... I've wanted to setup a video camera in the woods on the bank, mark the lake map with the HOT SPOT over the pipe and then have the city boys let lose. But then there's alot of things we think about doing that we'll never do...
kelly Posted October 24, 2012 Author Posted October 24, 2012 So, I should have been scanning the bank then?
