I'm available all three days as well, but I doubt that we'd be able to get "all" of his boats on Saturday and Sunday. Friday the 4th should be no problem though. Gosam is closer and also has boats, but I've never done much good out of that lake for some reason. Not really any place for camping that I know of.

If adoshi has five boats, and we get upto 10 people, we could rent them all and fish there on July 4th, 5th and/or 6th. Like I said before, I am available on any of those dates.

Yes, they come with trolling motors. Ack! Pirates! :mad: I’ve never asked about private boats, so maybe, but I’ve never seen any out there though. Yes, they come with trolling motors.

Do these other boats come with trolling motors?? "Any worries about pirates or anything like that?" Yep, right now Nigeria is extremely dangerous for pirates and on-land kidnappings, but we are 70 miles from the nearest land and have several lookout boats and good radar systems....so we are quite safe.

The boats are ok, but a little on the unstable side. Even still, they're worth the money imo, and if you can get out there on a weeday when it's not crowded, it's a really nice Lake to fish.

Camping on Idong on the 4th might be kind of fun, having our own beer, barbecue, and fireworks show. :smile: Although the family will probably want to go on base for the base show instead. I heard that Camp Humphries is laying out some cash for a nice show this year also. Rob, who is Yum Chi Adoshi and how are these boats you are talking about.

Any worries about pirates or anything like that? I think most of that type activity takes place on the other side of Africa though...

I have a fear of heights and the 4th or 5th floor is pretty much my limit. Yeah, it's going to be smoking out there around July but I'm game for whatever you guys come up with.

We have a drilling rig a few miles East of us that is drilling the oil that will come on board our rig. It's kinda cool when I think of it...I just wish I was fishing :neutral: Nup, I’m living on a floatel and they had to move us to the other side of the FPSO (rig) while they do some diving work, so when they pulled away I got a few photos.

That's pretty freaking steep! On the Discovery Channel, they had to put something on top of the derrick so that they could drill for oil. There were two guys up there trying to bolt it in and it looked pretty dangerous, yet cool at the same time. Did you take that first shot from the helicopter? Ack! That’s pretty freaking steep!
