Spinoff-Lets see your dinghy!

My 1993 Sport Nautique. Its for Sale. $13k OBO.

You have to know where to go on Lay, sounds like you were in Lacoosa. Put in at beeswax or pops by the 280 bridge. Riding from the golf course under the bridge to the island by 280 is pretty fun, rarely any other boats, and the river bends often enough to find glass that is out of the wind. Thats where we used to ride all the time. Waxahatchie has good deep water as well.

I was at families house. 2 hour drive just for a day trip. 0 out of 10 will not do again.

Lay is full of stumps and shallow water if your not use to it,believe I seen your boat pass my inlaws while I was floating on a noodle. Have you ever been on lake Mitchell just below Lay,it's a lot nicer lake just smaller but no stumps and it has clearer water..

Was there a huge tube on the tower and a yeti on the swim platform? If so that was me. Ha.

Forgot to mention how dirty it is. I have been out every weekend this summer on Martin and no hull ring. A few hours on Lay and I have a nice 6" brown stripe all the way around the hull

some from this weekend and last

Best is that the boat reads "HOE" on the side...

Hahaha that's awesome. Dam Chad lookin at booty and dam near sinks his boat. Ha. Wata dork... I woulda wigged the fuk out and pulled my lil boat out if I was U Brock.. When I bought a new boat I stayed a nervous wreck, mostly About kids gettin hurt, dirty ass Shoes, and tha whole "let's take the boat out and I'll get the gas". What they really meant was "let's take Ur boat out, get it dirty as hell, won't help pay for gas, and all you do is drive and make sure everyone is ok and havin fun! Oh and yes U can clean it by Urself too ." Yea .. 30 plus foot offshore team Fountain , with 3 outboard 300 hp engines for me or I'll just float somewhere...

That looks similar to my buddies Mirage when we were growing up, that thing would do 110, 120 depending on the water and get there in a hurry, it was a drag boat. Fun then but I'd be scared to death now. The water looks like pavement :****:

Auburn to Lake Martin and back yesterday. Auburn to Lay Lake and back today. Expensive weekend. And I will never be back to Lay in a boat I own.

The same goes for most of the other lakes on the Coosa river if you don't know where you're going. Get a decent GPS and a navionics card if you plan on visiting new lakes. The navionics app is pretty cool too but I wouldn't rely on it while running a boat.

I grew up on Logan Martin. Much different there. I don't know about the others, though. I know stumps are bad up around Gadsden also.

The south end of Logan is easy to run unless the water is down to winter pool. Not to much to worry about then but there are a few spots that aren't marked. The stretch between D&S marina and Kikers campground is full of stumps, especially around Broken Arrow.

Neely Henry can be tough to run south of Gadsden. The channel is narrow and isn't where you would think it's at in some places. When you come out of it, you're in 2-3' in some places even though you're in the middle of the river. Other than one old island that isn't visible any more, you can run from Gadsden up to Leesburg easily. That's almost an hour ride doing 70mph.
