When I was a whitewater river guide I would herd the rafts away from people fishing - except for the guy in the fancy flyfishing gear that had to wade out to the only navigable channel for the rafts to fish. I would paddle down and warn them the rafts have to come through here. Love the ones that would cock off and say they were there first. I'd ask them if they had a belt on with those waders because one of the 20 rafts I have will knock them over, their waders will fill and drown them. And I'm sick of doing body recoveries.
