Ron , The beaver dam is a real honey hole and quite deep and full of gills the area My story relates to was near where we put our various floating craft in the water. Just a piece of the shoreline and less than a foot deep. My fondest memories is the next day falling asleep near the shallow middle part of the lake in my pontoon boat where the rocks stick out of the water. I hooked a fin on the weeds for an anchor and slept for almost 2 hours. When I woke up I could hear VEE giggling her head off along with several others as they fished the beaver dam. Totally made my day. The evident joy they were having was simply infectious.

I hope to make Ephrata , its still up in the air, If gas is still below $20.00 a gallon by then I might make it.
