I saw a boat run straight across the old jetty's Sunday... It was bad... We saw it coming from a mile away, but he was too far to be signiled. We were about to go see if they were alright when he started moving away, CRAZY! Can not believe he hit those submerged rocks and did not loose his lower unit. Had to atleast messed his prop up..

Thanks Mike. You sure could make things easier if you'd give up a couple of them spots. :eek: Better yet....we'll just follow you. :smokin: I promise I won't even throw a topwater. :shaking:

I have seen this happen also..I don't know how somebody hasn't been killed....Also wondered many times why they don't mark that better...

I got "educated" on those under water rocks when I first started fishing Big Lake. I thought I could just drift over them while fishing and quckly raised the engin when it hit the first rock.

baitcaster I only use haybaler on bad windy days when I have to fish.

i wish i would learn how to pitch/flipp left handed (left handed reel) aswell....

I enjoy baitcasters but I just can not throw as far with them. When I am wading during winter months I use them to finese fish,with grubs extremely slow. I prefer my Shimano Spin cast for offshore fishing. Laced with 80lb. braid and a 100lb. fluorocarbon leader. Hard to beat that rig for throwing topwaters for Tuna or jigging for Ling..

It's kinda on the south end of the lake running east and west. Just north of the East Fork(old river) East of the ship channel, West of Grand Bayou and Lambert Bayou.

Old Jetties (GPS)
 
29°50'37.40"N 93°18'15.36"W ..........put that into google maps and it will put you dead center. They kinda' run at an angle. Yeah........I have to admit that I've sacrificed a prop to them. Talk about ruin a fishing trip.

Nasty 07-29-2009 08:09 PM
Old Jetties east end: 29*50.95 N; 93*17.93 W
Old Jetties west end: 29*50.664 N; 93*19.585 W

The old jetties run between those two coordinates.

I don't know how to put the degree sign so I used the asterick in its place.
