The Snake River in that part used to have line up sticks on the shore. You would line up the two sticks and then look for the next set of sticks. I never went up there much except in someone's jet boat. Great beaches there and the pictures brings back memories.

Not sure I follow you with the line up sticks? We were the only wakeboat venturing up there. Mostly jet boats, and a few tooners. Back where the Clearwater river meets the Snake is quite interesting too. The Snake above that point was averaging 74. The Clearwater however was a whopping 53.6! Brrrr - combine them together and it was about 71 downstream, not bad. We've jumped in the Clearwater before on these hot days and you literally jump right back out.

Stock fins I've tried f2, f3, f4 are all pretty bland.

I never liked quad since I felt like the rear tracked so straight I might as well have had a sailboat sized keel...

When I was playing with fins, the blackstix and JJG were the go to options. I liked the JJG enough that I stopped experimenting. So haven't ridden any others.

Looks like they're running $110 most places. But this is the best price I found...

You don't use the middle obviously.

If you wanna pay full retail, I imagine they'll get to you pretty quick from cleanline surf shop in Cannon Beach...

But like I said, I'd love to get out on the water with ya and you could try mine. We rarely have a full boat these days.

Things haven't changed. Dworshak dam (700 foot high) lowers the reservoir a foot a day after the July 4th weekend to flush salmon and steelhead at the colder temperature down the Clearwater. The markers allows you to follow the channel. They were white sticks that weren't always obvious and they may not be there anymore.

Liquid death is the brand. They have different flavors. But they're basically a bubble water like bubbly or San pellegrino or the like. Just with better marketing.
