lugwrench made a post in this thread: Silt Removal/DredgingI do have to be honest, it freaks me out every time I see the neighbor's wakesetter cruise through what looks like 18" of water. But we've probed the canal and haven't found a section shallower than 40", it's just all the loose silt on top.

lugwrench made a post in this thread: Silt Removal/DredgingWell, that would certainly do the trick Mark. It turns out that a different section of the lake has gotten approval from the lake board to have the DNR dredge it.

lugwrench made a post in this thread: Silt Removal/DredgingYeah, fool indeed, I was an order of magnitude off of what this would entail. Math is fundamental kids!

lugwrench made a post in this thread: Silt Removal/DredgingRoughly 30ft wide and ~700ft long, so that puts us at ~1555 yards of silt. We gotten "approval" that as long as all landowners agree, and no bucket loaders/excavators are used, it's considered shore frontage maintenance, IE they'll look the other...

lugwrench made a post in this thread: Silt Removal/DredgingIt is fine silt, moves easy and we've done stump finding expeditions and have yet to turn anything up. The neighbors Wakesetter I know draws more water than my Sportster. I think I'm at 22" but I was under the assumption that was with a half tan...

lugwrench made a post in this thread: UfcSo did anyone else think the Jones vs. Sonnen fight would go any differently? Sonnen had absolutely nothing for Jones, just a mauling. So the fact that Silva's weakness seems to be strong wrestlers, and Jones dominated a strong wrestler, it make...
