    Wow that sucks, we ate dinner there one night and thought it was pretty good. It’s a really nice place, sucks for the locals, always wanted to play golf there.

    I have never played golf, or ate at the club house. Had a home there for the last 2 years, been going to Rayburn for many years.

    I’ve eaten in the clubhouse a few times...nicest place around the lake. Going to miss the motel. You could arrive at midnight and they would have the key in the side box for you. I hope it’s taken over by some outfit.

    Bryan..are you at all concerned about property values?

    That place has been really nice, then a dump, then really nice, then a dump, before.

    No money in the area. A nice restaurant is rare. They come, they go. The economy can only support one decent restaurant in a 40 mile radius at best.

    When you have available Lodging in the area, and have 2-300 boats in a tournament, and there's plenty Vacancy at said Lodging, what's that tell you?

    The majority of them 3 hunnerd boats are LOCAL fisherman. And the majority go home to eat.

    I gar-ohn-tee-ya. Truer words were never spoken thru falser teeth.

    Seems like all the places were full..... During tournaments I have been to this year. Problem is the rest of the week, So many homes up there are 2nd homes. Just not enough people to support hotels being 85-95 % occupied on 2 days of the week, and 10% occupied the rest of the week.
