I hunted 35 years ago all around Warsaw, killed my first gobbler when they were filling up Truman Lake, it was awesome back then!!  Love the Warsaw area.  

This is my cataraft, it's a 16 foot Aire Jaguarundi.  It can haul 1100 pounds.  I took it down the Lower Gauley River in West Virginia a couple of weeks ago.  That river has 70 rapids over 14 miles, several Class IV and 4 Class V rapids.  Pure FUN!!  I'll take some photos once I get it all loaded down with gear.  These photos are at the top of Koontz Flume Rapid, a Class V rapid.


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Looks awesome!

Be interesting to see how it looks loaded for an extended stay.

Sounds like fun. Make sure to take lots of pics.

I'm back, bummed, pretty disappointing trip and very few photos to share since the Eleven Point River decided it wanted to hang onto my camera.  I got a few photos from my smart phone but the quality is not all that good.  I had a couple of nice photos of the raft all loaded but they were on my camera.   :(   No deer taken, no deer shot at, no deer in bow range.  Actually only seen two does in 10 days of hunting and one 4 point while floating the river.  Really pretty days and cold nights.  I just did not find any indication the rut was starting, hardly much sign of deer. 4 trail cameras out and never got a photo of a deer, whihc really shocked me.  No turkey sign.  I did catch alot of nice rainbows and could have taken home a cooler full of squirrels.  Very pretty river, but in several places it was more creek like and my raft was way too big.  The float out was 2.5 hours empty and turned into a nightmare 6 hour float out loaded.  I had to drag it accross several shoals and even one shallow and long shoal I had to partially unload, carry downstream and then repack just to get through the shoal.  I'll have to find a different river for this type of trip in the future.

All the comforts of home, but they forgot the roof!  

Check out this tree growing around this rock, very cool looking!

sorry to hear of your troubles. sounds like you had a pretty good trip considering!

Nice pictures! Thanks for sharing.

Neat stuff.....  

Been wondering how your trip went. Was hoping for much better than you experienced. Only way to find out is to go and you sure did that. "A" for effort Machias!
