Thinking about having one on Lake Okeechobee. Our Ducks Unlimited Chapter, would put it on. Any ideas would be helpful? Riding, eating , maybe an obstacle cource. Any ideas ???

Riding and eating always sound good. I'm in if this turns into something. I have a Long Tail so I'll be in the back of the pack.

Love to have you stu.

In.

PM'ing you my number.

Talk to Westendangler. He's the expert at putting these together.

We will try to get head count, got a dry place to stop , eat ,etc. Can't wait to check out other boats, meet other mud motor fanatics.

What part of the lake?

Where?

Muck,

Would you want to all launch int he same place, or just meet up in one spot and then ride, like the Monkey Box tripod?

Where is this?

Whens the date yall are thinking??

My only question is when, and is a longtail carry on or checked baggage?

I'm in!

Interested. Need a target date. There is an annual ride I have been going to here in the southwest corner of GA on lake Seminole. It's usually around the end of July.

I'd like to travel to one out of state ride a year

What kind of obstacle course? . What's the terrain like around this lake . Lilly's , sawgrass , ?? Interested in this ride as well, to meet some of our southeast MMT'ers .

We might just ride. stop and eat, then ride some more

Middle of August works for me. I'll take time off for this.

If I drive all the way there I'm leaving on a Thursday and coming back on a Sunday. So I'm going to want to ride Friday, I don't care if I have to launch with others that don't know where they are going, lol, and ride all day Saturday. I'm cool with stopping and eating and what not, but I'm not driving all that way if it's going to be one of these rides where you ride for an hr and stop and bullshit for two and so on and so forth. Sry for the rant. Lol

Im wit you pintail i leave thursday ride friday and saturday!

There's no mud to speak of on Okeechobee. At least not that you're going to run with a surface drive or longtail for very long. It's either sand or, more likely, semi-hard-pack muck.

So we would just be running vegetation. Lake will be pretty high by then with all the summer rain, as well.

But it's a big d@mn Lake and running for long periods of time certainly won't be out of the question; I've cranked up after a slow morning hunt and put 50+ miles on my rig scouting the west side of the Lake.

Lake Okeechobee

Lake Okeechobee, locally referred to as "The Lake" or "The Big O", is the largest freshwater lake in the state of Florida. It is the seventh largest freshwater lake in the United States and the second largest freshwater lake contained entirely within the contiguous 48 states. However, it is the largest freshwater lake completely within a singl…

Depth: 12' 2" (3.70 m)
Length: 35.73 miles (57.50 km)
Surface area: 730 sq miles (1,891 km²)
Area: 729.73 sq miles (1,890 km²)
Mean depth: 9' 0" (2.74 m)
Surface elevation: 18' 0" (5.49 m)

It looks like this

I think the best running is the west side and we should put in at Kissimmee or fish eating creek or somewhere in between for the best ride. But I'll go anywhere that's best for everyone one.

Its nothing like back home in Louisiana. No stumps sticks mud etc. In August itll be deeper water runnin through some thick vegetation and what not, but nothing like back home.
