 Lake Fausse Point ride pics 10/10/10
Yesterday Marcus(maxxis85), Stuart(slambin) and myself went ride on Lake Fausse Point. The water was low and had lots of mud. The back of Calvins Cove was straight slop. The pipeline was mud. Sandy Cove had a couple inches over the mud and hydrilla.
I ran one trail that was BAD!.... its the one where you go in and it takes a right then its straight for about 100 yards then a hard 90* right through the marsh and willows. It took about a hour or so to make it through. Stuart stopped behind me in the trail and got stuck.. Me and Marcus had to double up and yank the barge out.
Overall it was a fun day. Got to run the boats in the really shallow water and mud to see how they do. I had another guy in my boat that weighs about 180 and it did great in my opinion.
here is a few pics and a video. Stew upload the pics you took.
