Beginning Boater Advice

[duckydoty]

Our boat rentals at Lilleys' already included fuel, so you don't need to worry about fuel usage. If the water is running, we like to demonstrate, with you in the boat, how to safely pull out and pull back into the dock.  We are also very thorough in explaining the map of the lake and things to watch out for.  We also give you a class in the operation of the boat you will be renting to make sure you understand how to operate it. If you pay attention to what we share with you, the likely hood of damaging a boat is very small. Come on down and look me up.  I will be happy to help you in anyway I can, even if you are in your own boat.

Cool, that kind of thing would definitely put me at ease a lot. Well, we're planning to come down late next weekend and stay a couple days so if the water is too high for wading I'll give you guys a visit. Think I'll visit anyways for some trout jigs and such. Do you think it's looking like water might be down enough to wade comfortably by the 19th-20th, barring more serious rain? I got some newer waders I've been wanting to break in some more.
