Being from South East U.S. I have many friends that Kayak and I myself dabble in it when my friends feel like going back to the baby stuff. What made you choose canoe over kayak and can you roll one? I am a big guy and even the largest kayaks put me at the top of the weight limit. Should I look into a canoe myself?

Thanks for the info. I will for sure look into it. I have another question related to the rivers being shut off. In my area my friends are all waiting on either rainfall or for a damn to release so they can run the river. I think the Chatooga was the last I heard them speak of that they were waiting on. If they damn up the rivers will they not release them like they do here so that they can be ran at certain times or is this not the case. I watched a bit of your video as I am at work; if you did explain this in it I apologize. I will watch the rest when I get home. Either way, it is sad that this is happening because I am sure it effects the entire eco-system in the area.

I understand now and you are probably correct about the Chattooga. I have heard them speak of the American Whitewater many times but I didn't realize how important it was. This truly is a sad thing. There is no feeling in the world like paddling even though I swim often I still love it. I do hope this raises awareness.
