Floating Cabins
« on: July 14, 2021, 05:09:20 AM »
My annual "Floating Cabins" trip is coming up here soon and I can't wait.  Work and home stress is taking its toll and I need some R&R.

Santee Lakes.  My daughter used to get a little sea sick on them when the wind kicked up, but I only feel them tilt from side to side when we move around on them.
The catfish love hiding below them during the day.

Not sure what's going on here, but I caught more bats than cats as well as swarmed with more skeeters that I've seen since Florida. I'll have to adjust for night two.

Try a Thermacell...

I'm not sure how well those things work with the amount of skeeters down there, but I should have brought bug netting for my head.  I also saw more bats than I've ever seen down there.  At least 100 in viewing sight at any given time....

I started downloading pics to Imgur, but I haven't had time to write up a report, even as dull as it was regarding fishing.  I have my neighbors coming over tonight, but will get a report coming up tomorrow!
