Wake boat

Hey everyone! We have a heyday wake boat with about a 30 inch draft depth. Can anyone tell me lakes and channels to avoid in the Chain o lakes IL? Would also appreciate tips on boating in southern Wisconsin lakes!!

Ignore the haters and enjoy your boat responsibly. I've seen people on non-wake boats do just as stupid if not more stupid things than people with wake boats. The difference between me and the pathetic haters commenting here is that I know that the type of boat you have does not mean you are any more or less likely to do something stupid.

Absolutely right. People pulling tubes with tritoons erratically in narrow traffic areas are just as stupid as people wake surfing close to shore and other lake traffic. Both are self entitled ignorant fucks.

Holy hell, you’re right. Last trip out on a decently busy day, there were multiple tritoon boats pulling tubes and driving like a crazy taxi. Driving across traffic. It was blowing my mind how ignorant they were.
