Rivers I Need To Float...

[gotmuddy]

I could certainly meet up with yall for a sunday float or monday, Depending on the water levels there are a couple really good creeks nearby.

^{Talking about small creeks in Arkansas, one that I think is a sleeper is Martins Creek between Ravenden and Hardy. I waded about a half mile of it several years ago with a good friend, and was amazed with the bass we caught, smallmouth and largemouth. I'd love to float it someday in a canoe and fish my way down.}

I would be up for it, but it will probably be late June before I can get away. Son is playing baseball and we've got tournaments up the wazoo till mid-June.

If you want to float the River Des Peres I think I can get you permission to use the RDP Yacht Club Harbor.......

:-) LMAO Probably catch a few browns, I have second hand info that they are good that time of year. ;-) Never been able to fish that one, pretty exclusive from my understanding.

Back to the real topic. You guys have a neat idea with a community float. I would like to attend for a day or two, if I can make it happen.

Kings River--I've never floated the upper sections.

I haven't floated a ton in my life but did this one last year. It was epic. The bluffs were amazing and I highly recommend that you do this one. We didn't see another canoe or kayak the entire 3 day trip.

OK, we've talked about it...now the dates are rapidly approaching. Who's in?

I'm not sure at this point...I have a chance to float the Smith River out here in Montana the first part of June. It's the premier wilderness river in Montana and requires a permit to float it, and the permits are by lottery. A friend got a permit and Mary and I are invited along. We haven't quite decided to do it yet, though.

I'm in. But if I had to choose between Kings River Ar and Smith River Mt I'm afraid Montana would win. Smith River has always be on my life list but the hassle of permitting and the cost of hiring an outfitter kind if pushed it to the back burner. I always looked at Smith as being the Jacks Fork of Montana but like every thing else out west on a much larger scale.
