After our ACA course at landmark learning the we saw the Cascades were running on the Nantalaha and couldn’t help ourselves.

Setting by Crumbles

I finally found a playboat that doesn’t try to kill me. Being a big guy, makes it hard to find a playboat that really just clicks. I have tried numerous other brands of playboats, and every one I would try turned my river play, into a fight for my life. I was...
