I know it can get to be a challenge trying to keep growing children in tennis shoes and blue jeans, and because of the occasional use of a life jacket, their fit can be easily overlooked, but when the possible dangers of using an ill-fitting life jacket are considered, it is wise to make perfectly sure all life jackets fit correctly at all times. Another area I would like to touch on is the orange flags that must be displayed from a boat when a skier or any other person is down in the water. While attempting to get back into position to pick up or assist the person in the water, it is real easy to become wrapped up in the immediate maneuvers and forget to fly the orange flag, especially if you are the only one on board and are having to watch the water traffic and the person in the water all at the same time. However difficult as it may be, it is each person s responsibility to make sure everyone in the area knows someone is down in the water. Besides being the law, there is just too much traffic on the lake to gamble on whether or not someone in the water has been seen by all local boat traffic.
Most fishermen have a home lake or pond.
Maybe they have a favorite section of beach or river. There is usually a place that most fishermen know best. That is where they hang their hat. A place they feel most comfortable. Lake Travis is that place for me.
