Mo I used to feel the same way. What kind of boat u got? I tell you I run that thing in the winter in my 16 ft hunting boat with a mud buddy on it. Its a bad feeling when you get halfway out in that river and the ship seems like its going a 100 mph up or down that river, and its closing in on you fast. Going over them big wakes in a duck boat is very spooky. When I first started running the river I hated it. I was so scared of it because I know what it can do. but if you got a 17 or 18 ft boat you should be good. the summer time is mostly s or se winds and the south or western shoreline is always calm and you can run close to the rocks all the way down. Its really not that bad, but if you feel safer at Lloyds then its all good. Go where you have confidece and feel safe. But if you down on a calm day and want to give it a shot its not bad at all.
