a buddy of mine told me that there are really big water sharks there that have an appetite for wakeboarders. So.. you should not go there. These are really big water sharks.. man eating.

I have been to BB. The dirt is red, and it gets EVERYWHERE. Very hard to get out of upholstery. I still have some stuck on my trailer 2.75 years later.

Tom, how goes it?

It was choppy on Sunday. Its green from skin blistering algie. Dont pee in the water because they have Candiru. Google Candiru LOL

"When candirus parasitize humans, it is usually only when they are skinny-dipping while urinating in the water. The candiru tastes the urine stream and follows it back to the human. It then swims up the anus and lodges itself somewhere in the urinary tract with its spines. Blood is drawn, and the candiru gorges itself on both the blood and body tissue, its body sometimes expanding due to the amount of blood. This is all said to be very painful for the poor person who has this happen to him or her. Unfortunately, they are almost impossible to remove due to the spines. Amputation of the private areas is the cheapest, and most life-changing, way to remove the fish. Actual surgery is extremely expensive and involves inserting the Xagua plant and the Buitach apple up the urethra. These two plants kill and even dissolve the parasitic fish. If surgery is not done in time, the blockage of the urinary tract will prove fatal. The candiru is the only known vertebrate to parasitize humans.

There is also debris in the water, put there by the indigenous life forms, such as this beaver/hound.

They hate boats, and got me one time. Prop damage.

Hey Jon, just food for thought. That lake is glass, extra nice during the weekday's, Lot's of senic areas to chill, And in some areas no red dirt!, a marina for food and cold one's and gas. Here's a tip I got off Discussion Board, MR.Clean Magic Eraser's clean anything and are safe for vinal. I used em on red stains on my boat.

Enjoy!!

This lake is never glassy. It's a hurricane most days and there is a ton of underwater trees to avoid. Way choppy when the jet skiers are out. Even weekdays are bad. This is positively the worst lake in California. You should try Folsom. Way nicer and less crowded...and no snakes. Man those things are huge!! You should see the crowds on a weekend. You'd think you were at Boardstock. WHEW....and did I mention the fisherman with paintball guns?

Steve,

You forgot to mention how windy it gets on that lake. and how its almost impossible to avoid taking in mass amounts of water over the bow all the time
