I was in it today without a wet suit. I'll admit it was a little chilly, but not too bad once you were in a little while.

Thank god it was 78 degrees and brilliant sun to warm you up immediately.

Starke Lake was good today, we were out all day in it. Cold at first but it was fine with a good wet suit.

After a set I was hot and soaked for a bit to cool off, got a sun burn too.

Went out today and skied and wakeboarded. I was great to get out. We are going to try again tomorrow.

Shoot if those NW guys show up they'll need girls to fan them to cool them off if the water's over 60. I ain't a girl but I'll take a turn- one handed though.

Surprisingly they didn't. Last summer was very short for us. The water normally gets in the 60s by early June. It was middle of June and water was still 54 to 58 in some of the local lakes.

My favorite Henry Hagg, or The Hagg as we call it gets pretty warm as its a lot smaller, in 09 it was in the 80s and man i hated it lol. Last year it got pretty close 78 or 79 but as long as the air temp is over 85 it still feels cool.

I will take over 80 water any day don't get me wrong that just means we have a longer summer.

Last summer it rained for the better part of August so lake temps cooled down fast and we lot a lot of good time on the weekend.

Now if you goto the river, the Willamette or Willy as we call it, the water never goes over 70, now does the Columbia and ive been on them both a lot last year.

We've got 70's for the next 10 days. It's gotta be warming up down there. Even after the cold it could still be a real warm spring.

Thanks! You're the one who told me to grab that site.

Got word that cabin 14 has been reserved :D

Rained all day in Tampa and supposed to rain all week-hope Clermont gets the same.
