Report: First trip to the flat in many moons. Made a mistake by taking the 'long' ramp so headed to Island park and unloaded. A few guys around at 6:30AM and weather was, well sorta warm. Had shorts on. Headed straight across the lake for the rock wall and saw two boats tossing rip baits right in the 5mph zone. Go the rock walls and not a good sight. Found my trolling motor mount busted and tail light lens pieces inside the rail. Back to the dock, trailer in, boat on, headed back to Santa Maria. Long frustrating trip. Maybe next time!
