I found a good used kayak on Craig's list this morning and went to look at it and bought it on the spot. A Dagger Blackwater 12.5. When everyone bailed on flying I took it out to Hemlock to give it a test paddle. Cody says Hemlock is the better of the two little fingers and now I agree. There was very little boat traffic, I saw two power boats and five kayaks. I had a great paddle up the west side in the shade and the highlight was a Bald Eagle flew off a cliff and passed over me by no more than 50'. The boat performed flawlessly and I am real pleased with the deal I got. Here are a few pictures from the trip, wish I could have gotten a pic of the Eagle but I had the camera stowed and could not get it out in time. Oh well, I now have an excuse to go back soon.
