It seems a couple pontoon boats went down in there this summer and a couple folks drowned and one or two went down back to back and they go out. I don't know, I might b getting my stories mixed up. |

Thanks for the suggestions..... I'll be contacting the eburg fly shops and see what I can figure out for common access points. I've got another person onboard for this hunt so I've got a shuttle system planned. You people are great.....Thanks |

I have floated it but it was 10 years ago so I wont be much help for you on current trouble spots as it is allways changing up there. I can tell you unless you are very experienced and have highly maneuverable watercraft (probably pontoons)I wouldn't suggest trying it, I worked my tail off just to get through most of it in a drift boat. And another thought is that allot of the shoreline is private you need to be aware that if you drop something you will most likely be tresspassing to get it back to the boat. I have a friend that has lots of property lower on the river and constantly has to deal people down there doing this he finds wounded animals on his place that guys are not able to retrieve. Not trying to rain on your parade just something to think about. :) |

may be alot higher up river then you want. but i seen a few elk around the nelson siding road exit along the river on the unit 335 side of I-90 and usually see alot of elk in there when the heavy snows hit which well...they are now. so the elk should be on the move this week bigtime |
