Otis Reservoir

Does anyone have any information on any hazards at Otis

I have a club tourney next weekend and have never been out there.
Any info would be greatly appreciated.

biggest hazard is the pleasure boaters, there are a ton of them there

Watch out for a shoal cutting across just outside of the cove where the marina is. If the water is low, there are two humps in that area to watch out for.
Don't fly down the middle or to the right in the large southeast cove...keep to the middle left and get off plane once halfway down. If the water is low, and you're on plane, stay 100 yards away from the east main lake shore. There are some big scattered boulders.

Good luck

Another words, just stay on the trolling motor and don't start the big engine.

Steve,

It was a tough day on Otis, lots of rain and far too much wind. Fishing was SLOW to say the least.
