So to tie all the comments together.. There was this huge dude in a drift boat on the river left plunking the seam directly behind his boat. We float by on the right hand side of the river right seam and get about even with him when he tells us we need to back up (no chance) the fast riffle and go all the way around him on the far left.. Awesomeness ensued capped off with this guy letting loose a tirade Ermey would have been proud of.
And yes, another Norcal Pink with the sea scales on it still..
