The Ozarks are definitely on my bucket list to get to someday! Great job filming it and making me want to get down there even more! So many places. So little time. And that damn "work" thing just keeps getting in the way ! Lol
If you can ever find just one day, you should float Aker's Ferry to Round Spring on the Current. Get an early start but during the rainy season, this segment is swift and you'll see some AMAZING springs and caves - heck Southern Paddler probably has multiple videos about it.
@rootwad thank you! My biggest problem is getting down there from up here in Mass..Hopefully .I'll get there at some point and spend a few weeks down there!
@@thepeacerunners I can relate! There's a program on Canoe Poling by Maine Guide Lisa DeHart taht i'd love to attend but it would take me *days* to get to up there.
Not sure where the link to the song went to, but I did see it (YT had flagged it, probably because of the link). I did listen to it and had not heard it, but it certainly applied!! LOL!!
I love this river so much. Would love to get up by Cane Bluff again but i think the water is too low this season. 5:49 I LOVE standing! It's not for everyone or every canoe, but in my 17' aluminum tanks, i ride most of the way standing. I do drop down for the class IIs, or a dog leg / strainer so i can stay stable. Just as you said though, feels good to stand up just for a second and pick a line.
This is a fantastic river! I hate we couldn't start at Cane Bluff, but like you said it's been pretty low there for a while. Fortunately, I can stand in my ol' fiberglass Saranac (16ft) too and it's helpful when trying to pick the right line!! :)
Another Great Trip! & The water IS gorgeous!! The only time it gets that clear on the Choctawhatchee down here, is when there's been no rain for a month or two!
Thank you, Keith!! It had been dry for a while there when we did this trip, so that along with being predominantly spring-fed made that water beautiful!!
Can't get over the color of that water! Such a beautiful strip of river! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks, Dewey! Those springs keep that water looking amazing!!

@rootwad those guides up there are awesome.. that's also on my list !! Haha...even for me that's a hike...about 8 hrs...but i go up there when I can
Lol- I know I have one video of it for sure! Can't remember which of the 3 Current Videos that it's on, but it's in there!! :)
That's some prestigious river right there!
Yes sir, Wes! It was a beauty!!
The water is so crystal clear, it's stunning! A beautiful trip with lovely company.
Thank you so much! All of the springs feeding this river keep it very clear most of the time!!
Beautiful! Pretty Pretty water 🥰

I really enjoy these videos.
Thank you very much, Terry! This was a fun trip and I really enjoyed putting these videos together!!
Like 22 to Dan in N. Alabama from Mr. Garry up in Canada! Awesome camping, fishing and enjoying the river and nature!! See you again!
Hey Garry- thank you so much! Hey to you and Mrs. Betty up in Canada!! Stay warm up there!! Dan
Beautiful river. I'd love to see what the fall colors look like there. Great video, Dan.
Same, John! I think we were just a little ahead of peak colors. Thanks, brother!!
