Hi Everyone,

Just moved to DC and came across this group. I am looking for a fishing raft to float some of the great rivers not too far away. Is anyone looking to part ways with a decent condition 12 foot or so raft? Looking for a 2-3 person raft like a stealth craft, outcast or any of the many competitors out there. As I live in DC the ability to deflate the raft and toss in the bed of my pick up/ stow away in a closet when not using is pretty essential.

Also do the canoe float rental companies on the rivers like the Shenandoah offer a car shuttle service (someone drives my car from the put in to the take out for a few dollars like many western rivers have) or a service to drive you back up to your car after?

Really excited to start exploring the area and hopefully will link up with a few of you on the water or over beers soon.

Colin

Colin,

There are some outfitters near Front Royal that will let you park at their site and take you and your kayak/canoe up to a drop off point.

Dear Colin,

I just wanted to say welcome to the area and to the group! I've found TPFR to be really welcoming and a great bunch of anglers who I've enjoyed getting to know through Beer Ties (which we hear are being revived) and especially "Casting Church" (every second Sunday from 8-11 at Fletchers Boathouse near Georgetown).

Hope to meet you in person soon.

Best,

Owen Williams

Thank you very much for your responses and welcome to the area. "Casting Church" sounds like my kind of church. Hopefully I will see you there one Sunday soon.
