Looking north at Big Island just out of the bay of Sportsmans Landing. By the way, my guess of 2 pix ago that it was just off of hiawatha point going into Lake Bastine was correct! I want a recount! LOL Scott

Oops, meant the Rock Island by Shady Rest (Ken Newman's place) and not Idle Shores (Hart's place).
Alright, I'll concede defeat. No recount. Scott
shady Rest was Mary Downeys Idle Shores was Ken Newmans
Thanks Porky, since all of the resorts have closed down a person forgets who's is who's. And the names have changed over the years. I can always count on you to keep me straiten out. So this oldtimer was right the first time.
Thanks Scott for being such a good sport.
Its all fun and games, until you lose an eye. Then its fun and games with one eye.
Who's up next?
What you call Piney Island .. once was called seven pine ( or tree ) island .. then called 5 pine island .. then 3 pine Island .. and now ...
I remember when we were little ( in the 60's ) my brother and I stopped on this Island to pick up a home made Pirate Flag . And when we got off the Island .. many small spiders were on us .. and now that I think of it they may have been ticks . I know now we should have left the flag on the Island .. many smiles and laughs ago . Can't wait for fishing season to open up !
If you're cruising south on the west side of the flats, is this between the 2nd and 3rd islands?
Okay Tiny, here's one for you! ;)
Would it be the rock known as Big Mama on the south end?
George,is that the island by Fishermans landing?
I agree south end I am thinking the last island in Beaver Flats looking towards Beaver creek inlet.
These island pictures are tough they all look similar.

Sorry guys none of those.
Where's Tiny's guess?
the island in Lake Bastine looking at it from the east or northeast. Cry of the Loon Resort should be just out of frame on the right.
Your in townline heading east looking back to the west.
You are in Townline heading east looking back west. It is one of the larger
islands in the Horseshoe Townline area.
Good guesses, but not the spot. :(
Looks a lot like the island under Ski's rainbow...
Sorry it took so long to respond. The last picture I posted was of Big Mama on the south end of the big water, just before going into Beaver Creek.
George, my answer to yours is a island on the big water looking east of what the map calls Beaver Flats. Or the area we call Snoose Alley.
Thanks,
Any guesses?
Clues on this one...
the "land" in the forefront and on the left is an island..
the land in the back right is mainland.
ski2313, your on the Mantowish river channel facing west and just around the island is the inlet to Blair Lake. Must be high water, because there would be more stumps.
Very nice shot,
wow.. after reading your description, that is almost exactly how it would look from the spot you described.. however, that is incorrect!
Island on the left, front.. mainland to the back/right...
I think it's taken from the north end of C5/C11 island. On the right, Fisherman's Landing is around the corner just about directly below the setting sun. The island on the left in the background would be the big island on the northwest side of Baraboo.
I just want to know how the fish bite with UFOs flying around the flowage?:confused:I just hope that black spot above the stumps is an eagle.
The odd thing is that I only saw this guy flying around the TFF once - but on my way home the same weekend, I stopped at Timms Hill near Ogema (a recommended diversion for anyone driving up on Hwy. 13, by the way) and there was another one flying around the lookout tower there. Looks like a fun way to get a bird's-eye view, as long as it's a warm day and you don't have to make an emergency landing in water or trees...
Don't know the campsites, but that island has two. And your just coming out of the gap from Horseshoe/Townline. Straight ahead would be the Baraboo area and around the island to the left would be Fisherman's landing area. I guess looking back Blue got it first.
Good job, where is this?
Right on, Blue..
Here's where that photo was actually taken from and the perspective..
The UFO (aka ultralight) pilot is George Martin of Park Falls.
My picture is of an island on Lacs Des Mille Lacs in Ontario, Canada.
APRIL FOOL! :D
Tiny,nice pic.If I had to guess I'd say Big Island just nort' of the highlines.I think you had that same view on another thread with some really cold eagles huddling together.And thanks guys for clearing up that UFO thingy.:oSo do the fish bite better when George is flying around.:D
ok.. name that campsite...
A bottle of Jack and a live basket with some walleye. Looks like a pretty good day!
Ski, is it B-17 on Long Island looking towards Big Island? Scott
I'll go along with Scott.
How about this one? I promise this is the TFF this time! ;)
"buuzzzzzzzzzzzz"
Next answer? lol
blueranger would get this one I think...
ah, the beginning of the Flambeau River. my favorite fishing/canoe river in the world!
George's is that island where the eagle hangs out in winter.
