    The marinas around me charge $25 for a luanch, which might not be bad for someone with a big speedboat, but thats $50 a day for me in a 11' boat. What are you guys paying?

    No Water!

    The lake I boat/fish at currently is VERY low. The usual dam height has to be between 9 and 9.5ft, and it is currently at 7. This is the largest lake in New Jersey, and will require a lot of rain to make it fishable. Is alone else not able to go fishing because of the current drought?
