MAKE YOUR PLANS!

Are you bored on the weekends? Can’t find a boat to ride behind or party on? Does your dad own a $80,000 wakeboard boat that’s not weighted enough but wont let anyone else drive it? Maybe you like to party all day long, naked. Whatever floats your boat (pun intended), this is the weekend for you…

MOON LAKE REAWAKENING!

It’s all goin down JULY 23RD – 25TH on the glassy waters of the Ouachita River. Come get your ride on wether you have a boat or not. A free ride is for anyone to catch a set on another boat. Show up at Moon Lake Marina with your board and jacket, wave some green at someone and jump on their boat and ride some of the best wakes in Louisiana.

Join us FRIDAY night at 8 p.m. at Monago Fieldhouse on 165 north by ULM campus for the MLR Video Premier. Fieldhouse will have drink specials all night and some of the best burgers and wings in town!

Come watch as the best in the area compete to win best crash, biggest air, best trick, and the overall TOP GUN winner. TOP GUN gets at least $100 cash and a prize pack, others get prizes also… (There will be a prelim and finals. Top 3 riders get to compete in the prelims. Each rider gets 3 shots at the kicker. Biggest air, best trick, and best crash can be taken at any point in the contest.)

Between the prelims and the finals, SUNCOAST SOUND BUMP Contest will take place in front of the marina… have you ever heard 5000 watts of music be blasted at you? Muchless from a boat!?! Winner recieves a prize pack from SUNCOAST SOUND!

EVERYONE who hangs around for the awards will get a wrist band that gets you free cover at TOP GUN for the MLR FOAM PARTY! Dont get dressed to impress. Just party with the best in boardshorts and bikinis! TOP GUN will have drink specials all night!

Message from Ken Gremillion regarding Moon Lake ReaWAKEning:

See photos about navigation issues within and around Moon Lake. There is no chance of hitting any submerged obstacles if you follow what’s posted there. The Ouachita River is a river, keep an eye out for floating debris. I haven’t seen anything in weeks but an occasional log, refrigerator, or dead gator is likely.

Parking at the boat launch: Moon Lake Recreation Area (the boat launch) is a US Army Corps of Engineers facility. There is a $3 fee for launching a boat unless you have a Corps of Engineers yearly pass. No fee for parking cars or other vehicles not pulling trailers. Moon Lake Marina is just past Moon Lake Recreation Area on Moon Lake Road. There is no parking fee (today, but knowing Joey, that’s subject to change at will). If you use the facilities at Moon Lake Marina (park, lounge, #1, #2, or throw items in their trash) please purchase something from them. Their hamburgers are not that bad. Their beer and sodas are cold. NO GLASS allowed at the marina. They don’t like for you to bring drinks into the place, but you bring something glass in, watch out, they will not be nice to you!

No Wake zones: To my knowledge, there’s only one true no-wake zone on the Ouachita in the Monroe area. However, as a general rule, the locals do try to observe “no wake” zones around houseboats parked on the river to some degree. That doesn’t mean that you have to idle by any and every houseboat that you see, but use some common sense.

Sandbars: You’ll notice several sandbars/beaches along the Ouachita. There are a couple that people claim to own. However, they don’t. Land from the water’s edge up to the point of normal high water is considered public land. So feel free to stop on any of them you wish. The normal high water mark is quite high for the Ouachita.

Litter: the local wildlife and fisheries agent are just a stringent as anywhere else with regards to life jackets, fire extinguishers, etc, but litter is one of their pet peeves. They hide and wait for people to litter, and will even video you doing so for evidence.

Riding: Moon Lake is just a bay off of the Ouachita River. Most riding is actually done in the river. Upon leaving Moon Lake you can navigate either down river (south) or up river (north). Down river is pretty much straight out of the lake, slightly left. Up river is a right upon leaving the lake. You can ride in either direction, but will run into more traffic if you go down river (south). Going north, you have unrestricted travel for miles and miles (to Arkansas). A few miles south and you’ll encounter a large “no-wake” zone and some bridges.

The Ouachita River is a great place to ride. I hope this info helps make the experience more enjoyable for you and your crew.

    I’m genuinely not too accustomed to this subject but I do like to go to blogs for layout strategies and interesting topics. You actually described a Gall Bladder Symptoms that I regularly really don’t care a good deal about and crafted it highly fascinating. This can be a great weblog that I’ll take note of. I already bookmarked it for How to Recognize Gall Bladder Disease Symptoms future reference.
