| Was out at The Snip last night for a couple hours with some friends. Not really much action. One of my buddies caught a good size bass after we had left, but that was it for the night. |

How much of a pain in the butt is it to leave a boat there? I have an old Pelican Pursuit 80 DLX kayak that I never use anymore and could leave there for the season. Do they even allow kayaks at the boat storage facility?

I am not sure of all the details about storing boats there, I have only fished there from shore, but here is a link to the lake association.
