Correct Pontoon Anchor Stowage – NOTE: Retracting the anchors any further may result in the anchor chain jamming within the housing. The yellow rope should be winding on top of the reel. Only LGF personnel should operate our anchors. Please clear weeds with the “hook stick” and not by rapidly retracting and extending the anchor line.

Trip documents required for every LGF Trip
Here’s the trip reports needed for each LGF Trip, to be completed by our guest and the trip Captain. The Boarding Pass Guest and Authorization for Residents doc (DNR) should be complected by our guests before arriving at the dock. Note: Nature Tour guests do not require the DNR document as there is no fishing on those trips. Ask your guest on your “Pre trip phone call” if they have the (2) documents. Most of our guests are well versed in this process from past years. The Captain completes the Brd Captains Checklist. By starting your Captains Checklist before you arrive it will help streamline the process. Please ask your guest for the completed paperwork (2 forms) just as soon as they arrive. This will help insure LGF compliance.
