Drifter, if in real life your not the "nose in the air azz wipe sled runner blasting though the holes people are fishing who thinks he owns the river" you sure play one well on the internet.
I guess you dont see the 3' silt line after you go roaring by do you? You dont see all the small fry washed up on the rocks do you? You dont see the bank falling in the river do you?

Hate to be the one who has to say it but everyone doesnt want to be you. Trust me I can buy a sled if I wanted. I no more want to listen to a motor all day long on the river then get the flu. That aint why I fish. My friend who fishes the most down there with me has a sled. Hasnt had it on the Satsop in years. Goes to the Cowlitz with it where the banks have been rip-rap'd.

There should at least be a restriction to the size of these freaking boats and motors.
