Went across the lake the other day on the ferry, am I correct in saying the cables droop enough in the middle of the lake to not be a hazzard to boaters?

Chris,

Where the heck is Lake Wisconsin?  Were you on Pewaukee Lake on Sunday the 7th?

What are some of the nicer boating lakes in southern Wisconsin besides the big guys like Geneva?  Many are dammed up rivers.  Are their any clear water - sand bottom charms out there?

Chris - When we lived in DeForest, we ran Lake Wisconsin a lot.  We usually put in at Okee and ran toward the interstate stopping at various sandbars.  We rarely went down towards the ferry and never went across it's path but from what I understood, the cables were not an issue as long as you kept your distance from the ferry during crossing.

Dan - the Madison chain is nice.  It's not what I would call a "clear water" chain but does offer great boating.

Any good spots to eat and have a drink? Any good hotels on the water? I think I would have the drive trimmed up at the ferry crossing, It just doesnt seem natural to boat across submerged cables.

Hooker's is a great "grill your own steak" joint and Molitor's also has great food.  Bayside is a good place to hang and have a few drinks.   While there's a few places missing you can start with this website for lodging and other info:  http://www.lakewisconsin.org/
