Is there ever a problem leaving an inflatable and gear at the Dry F put in overnight? Thanks all

Looking for SRC in June with a 5wt and this happened!

Any Chopaka reports since winter kill and fires?

I have the k mini that I keep in any inflatable I happen to be in. Great for a top off but could be a life saver (arm breaker) in a emergency. HOWEVER here is my absolute new fav. https://www.dewalt.com/product/dce100b/20v-max-compact-jobsite-blower-tool-only Kinda pricey but bomb proof...

Anybody retrofitted a air bladder for the or to the foam seat? What ya use?

Look at MrCool. https://mrcool.com/ These are units designed for DIY with precharged lines. I installed one in a new garage shop I built. Very very easy. One hole in the wall. Of course you have to have the appropriate wiring. Mine was a 30 amp circuit I installed while building. Nothing is all...

Are we going to get a season this year?

I tried it for the first last year to great success! The most important factor I found was there to be a wack of fish in the river. Then nothing else seemed to matter….

Roadrunner Shuttles - Lori +1 (360) 374-6010 Morgan’s Crossing to Oxbow. Be aware of the Class II + drop right before the takeout. Not for beginners. Oxbow to Cottonwood. Go check out the takeout to be sure you can get to the river. Cottonwood to Barlows (Near Oil City) check the takeout for...

Summer SRC chasing has been a staple for me. Super low water eliminates the crowds due to the significant challenges that low water imposes on most of the runs. Fishing this way I’ve never touched a Chinook. I guess I get it. Poachers could claim that they’re just after SRC. But man most of...

A lot of keeping things cold is cooler management. How often it’s opened, how long it’s opened, keeping it covered etc. We’ve had ice at the end of 16 day 100+ degree Grand Canyon trips with one person being in charge of managing the coolers. Experiment with your beer. You can pre freeze! Works...

All this talk about BC lakes gets a fellow ta thinkin. What’s the latest you’d go into this area? I’m thinking about camping at Lost Horse around the end of Sept or beginning of Oct. I have access to a pop up bed camper on a 4 wheel truck. I also have a nice 23’ trailer. What might your...

Just tell me when

Let’s go! I’ll row and learn from the master.

Just use these https://www.nrs.com/nrs-1-loop-straps/pkvc Don’t need the fancy rings. I also use loop straps for my oar keepers on the oars in my hands. Easiest method to keep them attached when you want them attached and unattended when you don’t.

Hey Thomas, I haven’t heard back from the builder in OR, I’m thinking he may be out of business. That frame builder is, rowframe.com. Anyone out there know if they are still around? I’ve also contacted DRE about a build. DIY is on the list. I’ve used the same Zoro connectors. Major frame...

Yeah you’re right. I’m not commenting on the pro or con just that it existed. I love that river. I’ve hiked it, boated it, fished it. Along with a few other folks we were the first to boat from the old upper dam site to the mouth. I watched the entire process of radical change from on the river...
