Viewing the Lake Winnipesaukee woodcuts available now, I caught a glimpse of an interesting feature that extended far out from the Horn's floatplane dock, gas pump, and ramps.
The "spike" of shallows was undoubtedly the result of repeated driveway wash-outs. The driveway was about 75-feet wide, and led down steeply to the ramps.
Over the half-century of operation, many truckloads of driveway
contractor-fill replaced each washout, which resulted in that "fan" of dirt out into the lake.
Those shallows have been there for ages and the area is very rich in freshwater mussels. I remember one there clamped onto my trolled orange and black
Flattie plug, which took the
Flattie's strongly-vibrating motions away--alerting me to "the bite".
Maybe, he thought he'd caught me?
