Thought I would post some pic's of the Lovely water now that the Tubers and jet Ski's have gone back to school. Its the best time of the year. The water is still warm and high, and you pretty much have the lake to yourself.

I'm jealous of the houses!!

except for the "tooners", we owned the 65 degree water all afternoon yesterday.
|
65??? Summer time temps!! We are already into the 40's!!
|
agree!!! those that decided to wear tops were made fun of pretty bad....and yes someone had brought a dry suit :banghead:
|
Wow, we were still in 77 degree water yesterday.
|
Grant thats tulloch right? You usually only see butter like that in the 5 mph zone under the bridge
|
Tulloch mid Week 71 yesterday

Beautiful Grant!!!

Yeah not trying to Mislead anyone into thinking the whole lake is Butter all the time. But this time of the year you can find this water all over the lake. To bad we couldn't have had this type of conditions during spring ride would have been awesome.

I took this picture a few Octobers Ago. Oct/November can be some of the best months on the water
|
Kris that Picture is so cool it Looks like a Photoshop, Your buddy took a great picture
|
There's no doubt. For us way up north there is zero traffic and we seems to get a lot of flat calm days.
|
Lovin this time of year!! our water was 63 last Thurs. We don't quit until Nov 1st. Drysuit doesn't come out until water gets below 55
|
This was Saturday at my friends place. But then again I guess the private lakes always look this way lol. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/10/02/ypuhyteg.jpg

Rehab moto, Awesome pic! We're spoiled here in Charlotte, NC, water temps still in the 70's! Toobers gone, just dealing with the bass boats, but they usually avoid us while we're riding...

Findley Lake, NY. Wish I was there now, so not really October. But this is at the end of the season.
|
Northwest butter, Labor Day, yes Labor Day!!
http://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/10/02/bequvuta.jpg Sunset last night from camera phone, wish I would have had my real camera, it was beautiful http://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/10/02/jy8ubave.jpg |
yes, fall is the best time of year to ride! Where are some of these places if you are willing to give up your secret spot?
|
1st one is the Pend Orielle River about 2 hours north of Spokane, WA. 2nd one is Long Lake about 5 miles from my house in NW Spokane. Love the NW but hate the short seasons.

Long Lake is where I first learned to ski when I was 5. I remember tubing on that lake when a fire broke out nearby and a large super scooper was making drops on the lake hundred yards from us while tubing was pretty cool.
September and so far October has been money. Only boat out on the lake most times. |

Any water temp below 80, I'm breaking out the shorty suit, anything below 78 I'm full 4.3--- COLD natured. I think my husband is embarrassed for sure. I also have a minimum air temp of 78 for boating.
|
Boy glad you live south. If you lived up here in MN you might as well sell off the boat and hang it up!!!!!
|
Here's my weekend butter
http://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/10/03/4yveduqy.jpg Here's my backyard butter 7 days/week http://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/10/03/e3ezydev.jpg |
I don't think the water here has ever hit 80, lol! My cutoff for wearing a wetsuit top is about 65ish, anything below 55 or so is a 4/3 fullsuit.

Best October Ever
|
I'll have to dig up some fall pics. I got the reminder this weekend of how fast conditions change in the fall. Saturday night was perfect. Entire lake was glass. Only other boat was a pontoon out for a slow cruise. Sunday, white caps. Every time the boat turned I got smashed by a wall of water. I'm not sure i've ever had worse conditions. Still felt good to be out though. It's a long time till april.

I was criticized earlier in this thread for posting Buttery shots of water that was in the “forbidden” 5-mph Zone. I apologize for my indiscression of submitting photos of water that you can’t or should not ride on! These shots are all of open water. Please forgive me!

Thanks for noticing Grant. It was one of my better butter days of the year. Here are a couple more. They aren't as buttery as yours but at least we shredded it on our boards and not in a 'toon LOL. Just playing buddy. Keep up the great posts.
