Re: Strainer Near Miss

Roman- if you can give you one bit of advice, it is to never solo again. Ever. Because new strainers come down everyday, and all it takes is one mistake. Always have at least one other boater with you- the ideal number is a minimum of three (one to help with rescue, and the other to go for help) or ...

Re: FOUND at Dierks today

Can you say what the item is and see if someone can describe it better? I was there only a few days ago and changed in the showers, I just can't help the feeling that I dropped something and didn't pick it up...

Re: Christmas Eve Day Paddling

Renee- we're heading out of the port by 5 headed for crooked. You've got my number from my earlier post on this subject^^^. Do me a favor, and send me a text when you're headed out of town, so I have your number in case my dad doesn't. Hope to catch up with y'all.

If there's any Arklatex members, or Texarkana boaters interested, drop me a line- Three One Eight- Two Seven Two- Three Two Nine Three. I've been out of the water for t...

What is worth running?

I've got the next two days to run something. I'd like to make the trip up to Wister, but is it good at the current level? I know its not super high...The only thing that is truly running is the Cadron, but I'd like to do something a little bigger or go park and play. Any ideas? Will Rockport run tom...

Re: evaluating a "back-up recovery roll aid"

Save the money and learn how to roll, off-sides roll, handroll. Putting it off just gives you a crutch to fall back on whenever you swim- "If only my roll was better..." Not to mention that you could immediately ruin your day, and just as important, your paddling buddies' day as well. Stuf...

Re: Arklatex meeting 11/4 wednesday

Heath- hard to believe, but I'm actually the reason that we're only going to Dierks on saturday. I've got to write something like 43+ pages for 3 different college papers within a week and a half. Thanksgiving break will be a paddling one though, I can promise that.

Re: A very sad day for our paddleing community!!!

Bobby was a great guy. I'll always be indebted to him for showing me down the Cossatot Falls for the first time- he loved the water and people. I know that my dad and I always were a little happier and a little more comfortable when he was around (both in conversations and on the river). Alex- your ...
