Thread: Modesto Res. Boat Bash

    I'm sorry to have to do this, but we've cancelled the Boat Bash at Modesto Res. due to very low water levels. People have been reporting mishaps and breaks due to shallow water. Hopefully we have a wet winter for next year!
    Don & Denise Corbett, your hosts.

    Not good. How does turlock lake look, level wise.

    They are keeping Turlock low too, to save water in Pedro for irrigation, etc.
    Plus, Turlock Lake hates our kind of boats (they turn them away) and I think it doesn't allow alcohol. There is an outing @ Melones in mid Aug. I guess we could just have a show n shine and anyone who wants to put in and navigate the shallow spots can. We will probably go just to hang out.

    Just bring it a couple hours north to Berryessa or Camp Far West.
    Zoomies, open headers and alcohol are required at CFW.

    I will be going Saturday either way, Do most of you launch at the ramp or just dump it in at the cove? I may even make a trip out tomorrow the 4th. If you see a blue Bahner with Silver flames, be sure to stop off and say hi.

    Hey BlueNun,
    How is McClure? I live pretty close and have not been there yet.
    I mostly go to Modesto and hang out near the North boat ramp. Were due you launch at McClure? Any nice coves or beach area's to hang out?

    Mcclure is a nice lake lots of friendly people and nice coves to find. Barretts cove is pretty popular. I usually launch at the main ramp and am in the water in less than 15....

    I was also told that they are gonna pump alot more water in it starting next year to keep a better reserve.

    We checked out the water level at Modesto and its really low in the cove where we have the bash. They said they let 1' more water in for the 4th, but won't be adding anymore in future. The cove was so low you could probably walk across from pt to pt. Lots of nice beach area though . I don't think anyone would be able to launch at the cove. Well, whoever shows up we could just have a beach bash! and bench racing. You always go faster when bench racing
