I found a TFO 9' 5wt full set up on the Spokane river last week. I let me know which section of the river you lost this rod on, something very specific about the rigging/set up of the leader, and I'll see that the rod is returned.

As the previous post stated, pay attention to where you drop anchor first! Buy longer rope then you think you need. A locking carabiner is a must. In my opinion a 11’ raft anchor should be between 15 - 25 lbs. I’ve been using the tornado anchor with great results, but do some research to what...
Also durning Covid I quit the gym. I would lift and play racquetball. I purchased a rowing machine and started using it 5 days a week. Figured it would serve two purposes, exercise and improved skills on the river. Also got a split board and started some back country work.
Right on!!! Happy to hear your trip was a success. I was watching the flows all last week thinking about how your float was going to be. Thanks for sharing!
I will be bring my 13 year old with me as well, he can't wait!
Cleaned the raft up from last fall (finally) and headed out to Sprague Lake. Never been there before and probably not going back. Luckily, Amber is a cool short drive away and to our surprise ice free. (There was a very small patch of ice in the shade but it was just about gone by 6 o'clock).
@MT406 and @Freestone Thanks for the info and congrats on the 2nd lottery! I am looking at a backup plan and either way will be fishing somewhere. I have already stated to get fliers in the mail for shuttle service and boat rental! :)
Right On!!! thanks for the info and pics! I can't wait, even if the flows suck and it snows we'll have a blast! This past year has been difficult to say the least, and a trip like this is long over due!
Also, a big tip of the cap to Montana State Fish and Game! The amount of info accessible...
