Interesting you should mention that Jeff. My fishing buddy said that the worst day fishing was no longer better than the best day working. Of course his tent got a lot wetter on the inside than mine did. For me it still beat being at work. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> This is why I've switched over completely to hammock camping - I stay nice and dry when I'm suspended a few feet off the ground, away from the puddles <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> 2 words... SEAM SEAL <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />  i got a $80 tent that lasted through a 8 hr rainfall in FL...by the end it was hard to tell if it was wet from condensation or outside rain.  also if you know it might rain then find a better spot.  like they say in real estate: location location location!

Archangel, we were on the other side of the lake from the dam. I have a Rainwalker pouch sheath for the SOD. I don't have a picture of it at the moment. I'll try to post you one tomorrow.

Jackell, great pics.  Even though you had a lot o rain it sounds like you still had a good time.
 I know when I was growing up we did not do a lot of camping because my grandparents had a place at the lake, but I was the kid that would throw a tent up and stay in it instead of their house.  Oh how I wish they were still with us and down there at their place.
 
 I guess for my quest of a BDLE is going to increase.  I like it for the looks, then I started reading HD's post on it, and now you torment me with it LOL.
 
 Thanks agian for sharing your trip.

I'm 51 but still enjoy camping in a tent. Most of my freinds have outgrown staying in a tent and think I'm crazy.....and they're right but that is another issue <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

That's one of the really great things about the Yard Simon. All the Dogs sharing their little adventures. I've always enjoyed the ones you post. My mouth waters when I see a new review Horndog has posted <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Any trip camping and fishing is a good one. One year we had a huge storm blow through collapsing several tents and leaving standing water everywhere. After that I went out and bought the best tent consumer reports recommended for waterproof. It has not rained hardly at all on my trips since.
