    Two years ago I went down there by myself. I used Richard Canoe rental. Nice guy and decently priced for rentals. Take out is PigPen Hollow. If I could suggest some thing for anyone. Bring a 55 lb trolling motor if possible to save on your arms and back if you want revisit any buckets, or riffles. Have a map of the river or GPS with you. I didn’t see any signs down there for any access points. So what happen to me was I missed my pick up spot because I didn’t see any signs. To make matters worse I broke my rod and ran out of water too. I pulled off at the next access point left the canoe and started walking. Found a couple to drive me back to Richards canoe. The Greer Spring is up stream past the highways over pass. RECEPTION IS SPOTTY.

    Guys,
    What about the Jacks knot? Anyone tried it yet? I haven’t tried it yet but looks super easy. Uses less tippet and small knot just like the Davy’s knots. You could do it in the dark! Ha (said in the video) I’m going to give it a try. The Davy and double Davy knot gives me trouble when my hands are cold. There’s also another knot that this guy has for tying tippet to tippet.

    Sorry, I texted Kenny this morning to see how it went for yesterday. He told me that you all were going today. I know the river is way down. Thanks

    That’s the price you pay for not having to walk back to the vehicle to leave or change clothes. Cold huevos versus leaving/changing clothes.

    Has Anyone purchase the Compass 360 waders? Reviews on those. Does anyone wet wade during the summer. I do. I throw on a pair Nylon pants and they dry relative quick. On the river I see so many guys still wearing waders I wonder why would anyone want to wear waders in the summer It’s too hot out there and water feels great. When you slip you get wet.
