riverrat did you sell that tunnel boat?
chris 3298, is there any place around covington where you dont get in trouble going fast, I am in franklinton ,last time i went fishing down there st tammany police were everywhere.
Today I went on the Tcheffunte River and it was really dirty but there wasn't any police out there. I find during the winter there isn't many cops out on the river but summer is when it's really bad. Most the cops though seem to stay up close to Madisonville in summer and every now and then will do a little patrolling up river. Best thing to do is stay off the river on the weekend if you can and just go during the week and you don't have to worry about cops.
My boat isn't fast enough for them to even bother me. I did see one sign that said 36 mph now i know i can go a little faster then this. This winter I have fished that river a lot but come summer i think i will stay mostly over by cane bayou and in Lake Ponchatrain, those dam wake boarders are aggravating on that river. If you must go on that river, go on Saturday, Sunday is really bad with boat traffic. I'd really like to go try up around Bogalusa on I think it is pools bluff is the name of the launch. Have you fished around there?
Chris ,we can test but the game wardens will ticket you for racing. The fish kill last year set the fishing back . there are still some fish .
The Game wardens are they around pools bluff alot? I really don't think I have ever even seen a game warden around the river here most just the sheriffs department.
I forgot about the fish kill up there, probably best not to fish it at all and let the fish come back really strong. I know Cane bayou that I fish a lot next to Fountainbleu state park had a real bad fish kill the last time they open the spillway. There's bass in it now but god you hate seeing that kinda stuff happen up close.
I guess the only place to race would be like Lake Ponchatrain on a calm day but that's pretty rare.
I've always wondered when you get a ticket in a boat that wouldn't count against your actual drivers license would it? I mean this isn't something I need to worry about because i'm not fast enough anyway but have always been curious?
Man .... Have y'all read the name of this forum " BOAT RACING FACTS" and y'all over there fishing !!!!! This comin weekend I'm off and I'm goin some where to smoke some a$$. Either Sabine River or Moss Bluff. I'm tired of the bs talkin I'm ready for some action. Speaking of action ....... You got your ears on ACTION JACKSON ? Drag your piece to the river with yo 5 Gallons of VP and lets get it on. After I knock the dust off yo lil merc it's Sabine time unless the SRG wants to come over there and visit !!! If y'all do you better fill yo truck up cause you won't have gas money for the trip back.
Was just on the river today for some fishing but the water was crap so went for a boat ride. There was a guy on there supposedly he said he raced with ya'll up in Bogalusa and he was running about 52mph today. Blew by me like i was standing still with very little wake. I think he was running maybe a 14-15ft boat with a stock 40 merc he claimed. I gotta get me a different prop.
