Bob,

Thanks so much for the kind words. We originally planned on rigging there, but were told by the backhaul company that the backhaul was going to be full and to have our boats broken down. Then they showed up with an extra boat. I agree with you though. Rigging at the ramp would have been much easier.

Just a note to let you know that I enjoy your website. Good stuff! I’ve done a couple of Ferry floats in a pontoon and kayaks the last few years. All of them have been a blast. Just an observation – you can rig your boat at the ramp and drop the whole boat on the backhaul. Load your gear separately then strap it on your boat once you’re dropped off. Less time rigging, more time fishing.

You absolutely do need to do this trip Eli. I’ll let you in on the secret straw hat. If your looking for that particular model, there is a box truck on the corner of Northern and El Mirage. Ask for Pedro…he’ll hook you up.

Most importantly how about a gear review on that straw hat. My old one is on its way out and I’m looking for recommendations…

Thanks Howard. That’s really kind of you. Truth be told, the pics don’t do it justice.
