Lake Oahe


We spent several days in Presho, SD waiting for the rain and wind to quit.  We finally made it to our next stop north of Pierre at a campground on Lake Oahe out of Gettysburg, SD.  It was a very nice campground with a nice view of the lake and it was reasonable.  Its too bad we couldn't have waited out the bad weather here.  Although we would have probably had a frozen water hose if we had been there during the bad weather.  Lake Oahe extends all the way along the Missouri River from Pierre up into North Dakota almost to Lake Sakakawea. 
This area has great walleye fishing and it is out in the middle of nowhere.  There are a few resorts along this part of the lake but not much else.  Its amazing that such good fishing waters aren't busier and more populated with cabins.  We had walleye dinners at the local restaurant -- it was good but I now fresh walleye will be even better.

We made it to Indian Hills campground out of Garrison, ND the next day and are now getting settled in -- the dust and grime washed off everything and getting ready to start work.  We hope to be out fishing sometime in the next week!
