Willamette out of Salem

Does anyone know if this is navigable water?  I am driving down to test a boat and he is not farmiliar with the water.  He claims the only lake close enough to run in is 45 minutes away.  Anyone know this area?  Any info would be awesome.  Thanks.

There are a few streches that can easily be run, however the water level in the river needs to be considered.  It's been nearly 15 years since I was down there to fish and I honestly can't remember any details.  Sad Wish I could be of more help Terry.

A river? Take it west to the salt and put that thing through some Pacific Ocean paces... CHUMP!

OK - sorry. I have nothing else to add here.  Wink

No it's a Skeeter.  I guess we'll just drive to where he's comfortable.  The deal's right, now the boat must live up to my expectations.  Chump?  I'll remember that after I've been fishing our spots for the last hour until you arrive. Shocked

No way, dude. My Livingston is SOLID! Pay no mind to the many gel coat cracks.

I fully plan on getting the old WBC tournament rule reinstated for small outboards. I believe they used to let 50 horsepower and below outboard leave 10 minutes early!!! HAHAHA!

A 10 minute lead on most of our tourny lakes for your Livingston, puts you just about far enough for most of us big guys to have reached full speed and run ya over  on the way to a fishin hole Sarge.  Ha!  Grin  We'll just add to your stress cracks! Shocked

Smitty,

Don't forget... The white light of the full moon shines brighter from the deck of a Livingston. (wink wink, big boy).

Grin Chris

P.S. Ok - I'll stop posting unrelated things to the main topic... I can see all the computer people's faces getting bright red.

Sarge, can't be dropping the inside jokes on these poor soles.  Plus, it was more aimed at Danny Garrett anyhow.  A full four cheek salute if I'm not mistaken.

It ain't often you see that much of a moon at high noon on Banks. Grin  It was really scarey! Ole Danney hasn't been heard of since. Shocked
