Absolutely!

Spent some time in drift boats out west & jets . This bring backs memories of the early days on the salmon river before the mobs emerged .
Late 70’s thru early 80’s I remember 2 drift boats on the river . I fished there several times a week and those two would come by .
I think guides were Ken Budd & Ron Clark , pioneers in that fishery .
Fishing awesome when the steel took hold , good days easy 12/20 steelhead !
First time I ever witnessed a float rig , couple of Canadians would fish close to me
on occasion and float fished !
Good luck Mikey !
