OK, OK, you've talked me into it! shocked wink

I really was more concerned about dragging it through 100 yard riffles than bending the bottom, although at these levels I'm sure I'll see rocks I've never seen before. It is gluvit coated so I shouldn't need a come-along to get it over the shallow spots.

Hadn't thought about the hidden sweet spots, OR the lack of sleds, Justin. NOW I've got the urge get out there!

I may have to reassess my gut feeling on sleds in that river myself, eventually. I seem to have inherited my Mom's arthritis. beathead
