What an odd first post
Get back to me on that after you run Mesa Falls>Warm during salmonflies. I've done it five times and broken an oar twice in the shallow rapids below the Bear Gulch access. Fixed oars are so sketchy in fast but shallow whitewater. So, needless to say, bring a spare oar.
Gretch, in your stuation I would get an Aire Puma which is the little brother of the SuperPuma, a standard for whitewater angling in these parts. It's manuverable in tight quarters. It can handle real whitewater though due its smaller size big holes and haystacks can flip it. You can put the minimalist rowing frame into it for oars (which you will need if you are solo). Or you can run it as a paddle raft for stop and go wade fishing and as a pure whitewater playboat. It only weighs 90lbs as a paddle raft so it can easily be carried up or down a trail to the water by just two guys or portaged around a falls.
I would stay away from that section ND! I prefer a bigger boat there.
Took mine down parts of the snake river canyon but that's completely different water! Standing waves are no problem. Even big ones. Hydraulics with a good amount of force are very scary tho.
I didn't take your advice from a while back....have the hoback a shot too. Mistake!
not a traditional fishing boat really, but anyone tried one of these?
