Lake Henderson and Inverness Bluegrass

Lake Henderson, along with the attached Tsala Apopka Lake can be seen as you drive to Inverness along State Highway 44, aka Gulf to Lake Highway. Many of you have seen the boat ramps and large parking lot on 44. I did not launch there, but at a small ramp at the end of Apopka Street in Inverness. Very limited street parking. Fortunately it was a drizzly morning, so I got a spot between 2 large live oak trees.
On the Lake at 9:48.

I was briefly on the Withlacooche, North, 5 days ago. Today's paddle was a scouting trip. As I will be taking the Glen Lakes Kayak Club on a paddle around Hog Island in 8 days. I have only launhed there once. In 2005. I have stopped by many time when paddling from Silver Lake to Lake Townsend.
I was on the very low Withlacooche at 10:40.

Launched from Lot 6 in the Apollo Beach end of the Seashore at 1:09
Due to wind, I only took one photo until I reached a cove that often has manatees. They were present.
