If you spend anough time on the LOTWs with the varing water levels you'll eventully hit a rock. If you're lucky you'll hit them at low speeds, and then an aluminum prop does save some repair work. If you hit a rock at high speed regardless of your prop, good luck.

I always say there are two kinds of folks on the lake. The ones who have hit a rock, and the ones who haven't hit one yet.

Oh, by the way the charts are pretty good, but I can show you lots of spots where they aren't so good. If you stay on the main channels they are great, but once you get off the beaten path they aren't as great. Be careful!
