I think there's a 50hp limit on that river now, not sure tho.

I cant see any restrictions anywhere,I will check at the resort when we put the boat in.

Stay off of sensitive rivers with jet boats- the Mitchell is one of those rivers ! Boats Wash out a lot of the Salmon Egg stock ! RJ

Maybe I'm missin something but asking at the resort on the day your about to start the trip?? So whats plan B if you don't go?
Ive been up the Mitchell in a 12 ft aluminum, quite frankly this is not a river boat kind of river. I agree totally with Remington Jim, the river is way to sensitive, head to a river that has the width and hard banks that can handle the wash.

Not a lot of river to run there either. There's a log jam there that isn't very far up.

Plan B would be fish the lake look around enjoy the day, It seems lately that there are lots of glass half empty black cloud kind of folks out there. Just taking the family out to see some new country and do some fishing.

I was just trying to help you out and save you wasting your time. I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings with the truth.

If that's what you're after (family exploring), un-load into Cariboo Lake and run the Cariboo up to the bridge. Great family recreational outing.

Well, what did you end up doing and finding out?

[justachip]

We had two great days ran the East arm did some fishing the first day and ran the North arm the second day Beautiful country.Thanks again to Mr Rupp for his input. Might try the Cariboo Lake/River run next time we are up.

Did you check out the falls at Niagara? I ve heard of people winching their boat around the falls. I don't know if it's true or not ��

Were you the guy with the dodge truck and the zodiac jet?

[justachip]

Yes we checked out the falls very nice but I cant see anyone winching around those falls they are quite large. No Dodge truck but aluminum Jet boat.
