Osprey,
If you're going to tangle with a sled while on a Cat to make a point, you'd better come up with a different plan. You might find yourself in the same situation as the pedestrian who steps into the crosswalk to show the speeding car that he has the right-of-way. Maybe he does, but getting turned into street pizza is a tough way to prove your point. You might wind up owning this guy's sled, but you might also find it tough to fish from a wheelchair while holding a rod in your teeth.
I agree that particular sled pilot needs his head either examined or held underwater for a while, but winning a collision with a sled is not an easy task.
And what is this crap about "a river or two" for sleds? Are you serious? How much freaking water do you need, sled guy? There is hardly a shortage of sled water around here, but the Nooch above white brigde when the water at Save Creek is about 600-700 cfs AIN'T it! I don't care how small your sled is, when that water's that low, the sleds don't belong there.
Not all the Nooch sled pilots are inconsiderate, but the problem lies with the fact that a small number of sleds being run by clowns can ruin the river for all. I guess that inconsiderate sledders are might actually help drift boaters by getting themselves barred above Black Creek ( I think the spillway is a better cutoff) .
Fish on...........
