Members Rico Deuce Posted January 24, 2018 Members Share Posted January 24, 2018 A couple buddies and I took advantage of the beautiful weather on Sunday and floated from Lake Springfield Dam to 160. The water was incredibly low and we dragged quite a bit even in kayaks. Fishing was slow, but we managed to catch a few bass. I noticed they've posted a bunch of "No Trespassing" signs all around the entrance to the cave. There was one spot where the river was still frozen from bank to bank but luckily I was able to break through it with the kayak. Next time we're going to float from 160 to Delaware Town. Overall, I can't complain about being able to kayak in January. BilletHead, JestersHK, Daryk Campbell Sr and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daryk Campbell Sr Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 What tricks are you using to stay dry? I always get wet in a kayak . Money is just ink and paper, worthless until it switches hands, and worthless again until the next transaction. (me) I am the master of my unspoken words, and the slave to those that should have remained unsaid. (unknown) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Rico Deuce Posted January 24, 2018 Author Members Share Posted January 24, 2018 Nothing special really. The drip rings on the paddles help keep them from dripping on you. I thought I'd have to get out and drag the kayak a few times, but managed to push and thrust my way through the shallow spots. I ended the float with dry feet.

tho1mas Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 I live about 1/4 mile south of the cave. Someone bought a big chunk of the property around that cave. Saw a guy painting purple paint on trees last week at the edge of my place last week. He has been running everyone off the place since last fall while his black Lab roams the neighborhood. I hope he doesn't build a bunch apartments on the place. We see deer & turkeys almost every day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
