Marsh Rats; not just for hunting...(pic)
Disclaimer #1: I do NOT know these people!!! They went zipping by our campsite a couple of times so we snapped a photo. Yes, they have on lifejackets and were having a blast!
Disclaimer #2: The water is only 3'-4' deep with a nice mucky bottom
Probably not what the Marsh Rat folks intended for their boats but it sure looked like fun on a hot day. Yes, we only saw them do this when Mom stayed on shore.

Not Paulina. I'll keep the spot secret to protect the "innocent"......The boat had a COOL airbrushed camo pattern that included VERY detailed cattails and reeds.
We almost didn't post this pic because of all the laws being broken (It's also a 10 mph zone  ). But they weren't hurting anyone, there was no one else on the lake and it did look like fun!!!

Re: Marsh Rats; not just for hunting...(pic)
that looks like a hoot...i'll bet those kids are loving it.
they might be on the wrong side of a law or two, but it looks like they are on the right side of "fun"..and it appears no one is being too careless.

Re: Marsh Rats; not just for hunting...(pic)
Is it possible that that 10mph limit was to help not create wakes which could disrupt wildlife nesting along shore?
That does look like fun though......defenitely a redneck
