 First time on Caddo Lake
Made my first trip to Caddo today. Just cruised around checking it out. How can a mat of grass and mud stick my boat but not be able to keep me from sinking up to the bib of my waders when I step out of the boat? This is not what I wanted to see when I looked behind me.....

Caddo can be a tricky unforgiving place. Brooks is right...you are lucky to be alive.

 Re: First time on Caddo Lake
I have been to Cado. Ran across the same shiat it stopped me like hitting dry ground.Put it in reverse and had it moving 30' around me and worked my way out of it and then did it all over again.
Put that in you MB and smoke it....You and your no reverse having azz can suck dez nutz!

 Re: First time on Caddo Lake
DHF250, I didn't have to get dirty the first time yall got stuck at bist...  Freddy parked right next to ya and after he got yall goin, I backed his boat right out. The rest of the day we was all stuck together for sure though. And just for the record, that ain't float on...That is an island with grass growing on it. I doubt the reverse is gonna pick up an island and move it around. Hydrilla is another story. FPR is your best bet to get out, but I've had to use the winch a few times when stuck like that in the pic above...jus sayin

 Re: First time on Caddo Lake
That was fun. I'm headed back there the 18, 19, 20, and 21 to hunt. Matter of fact anywhere in the area i find a bird. DHF250 - So what your sayin about my boat is, its either the uncle J hull or the masterful driving of CB! And I don't mind gettin dirty to help a guy out, who's buddy lets his reverse go under the boat out. And there is really only way to settle this. Y'all meet up and try it.

 Re: First time on Caddo Lake
Brad cant sink past his waist... If your gonna go through stuff like that you might want to get a 35 longtail.
My 9hp godevil wouldva make a salsa out of that.
