Three people on the outing and two turtled. I was not one of them. The other was a newbie and I would expect HER to turtle...but not a seasoned vet like Greg.

I have never done the Eggleston to Pembroke float with the water level so low. It was pretty treacherous in spots. I came close a couple of times.

Yikes! At least the water was warm; I've turtled twice, and neither time was the water warm. It's the inevitable club we'll all join

Dont feel bad i got wet on the james a couple weeks ago, and lost a nice rod.... I didn't lose any but broke one rod. Broke both of the ram tough tubes off the back. On a up note ordered two tough tubes from amazon, the rod wasn't one of my ducketts so it could have been worse.

Welcome to the club! Hate you broke a rod and your ram tubes... I have turtled twice... both on the same day on that same float... I have never been on that float when someone didn't flip. Did you all catch any fish?

Hate you broke your stuff Greg. I almost joined the club Saturday in the first riffles I went through in Ivanhoe. It's amazing how differently a kayak balances when you throw an extra 50 or so pounds of camping gear in it.

Yo Guys...I didn't turtle but had my guest turtle and broke two of my rods. They were both cheapies but still catch fish.
