funny story guys.... last week went camping and fishing on silver lake.... well we had a very bad storm that brought down a few trees..... next day on the lake there was the usual weeds pulled up and pieces of wood and what not in the water but way out in the middle of the lake i found there was more wood than normal so i slow up and carefully manover through them only to thump onto the freckin trunk of a tree connecting all the pieces together........ about 2 feet down there is leaves followed by trunk... all thes timber is a very large oak tree..... the entire stinkin tree is floatin out in the lake with just a few lil tips poaking up.... thank god im careful and slowed to a near stop... did no damage.... if i had been a maniac powerboater i would have totaled my prop and damaged my hull motor.... if i was a water skiier id have a 40 foot splinter to pull outa me back side..... any1 have a good story of there own?

Not so much floating stuf but stumps When my buddy and I search back bays on the Ottawa we usually nail a few.
Thats why this year I've decided to leave the deep-v at home and fish for toothy critters wirh this

Oak? Oak doesn't float! Unless the leaves were keeping it up.

That's freaky, jebby -- the whole tree! Could have been a nasty accident.

oak dosent float? hmmmm i dident take a very good look... was more concerned with my new prop but it had the spade like leaves.... im no tree expert though..... any other species sugestions? note it was bearly floatin the trunk and alot of it was submerged but some small limbs were through the surface.... thats wut prompted me to slow up..... i was luckey......

curious as to what it was.... any ideas?

When we had our trailer up on Centennial Lake, we'd head out in the morning across the lake to find a huge mess of debris floating in the middle of the lake; being pushed by the breeze? If the wind changed, coming back, same stuff.

Never had to look too far for firewood
