Very cool shot. That's a nice spot they're to have by yourself.

Awesome shot - My buddy took some drone footage of us out on the boat. When he edits it down I'll post the link here.

I got my son one but he hasn't learned to fly it good enough yet over water and we don't know how to take pictures from it yet. Oh then we left it in the cottage we rented up north. They just shipped it to us for a small fee and we got it back yesterday.

Thing was fn incredible. It'd sit still. Follow. Worked off 7 satellites. Stayed level and followed us in from almost a quarter mile out.

That sounds sweet. Never really thought about getting one. But you got me thinking about it now.

We anchored out by these cliffs today. The water was 67' deep and 88° on the surface. A great day on the lake!

On Memorial Day weekend the water was 74° and I got in. It was... refreshing, as long as the sun was out. I guess it's all about what you're acclimated to. Thursday afternoon when we got here the water temp was too warm unless you find a current.

Driller what does the water temp get up to on Travis?

Here is a shot of one of the big cliffs on our lake. I'm guessing it's plus or minus 100'. You can see a house up in the right corner. I bet it's a great view!

Yowza! Rappelling down to beach would be fun but back up not so much! Looks fantastic!

Marlin tournament ends here tonight (4 days). Should be fun but weather in the Gulf is not great and heard few catches so far. None at early weigh in last night after 1 437lb earlier.

Isn't that all catch and release? How did that work.
I caught a Sail once. Boy was that captain pissed :-)

Air temp today 102 F. Water temp 86 F, even with 120' depth.

Guess it is a relative thing. When it's 102 air temp, 86 seems great.
