dams are nothing to play around with! especially when open!
please i cant STRESS this enough.. if your boating around a dam, or any rough water... WEAR YOUR LIFE JACKETS!!!!!
no way would i have went out there in the lil jon boat they were in... no way @ all!
This is especially sad; from what I read one of the guys missing is the guy who tried to go help.
Keep in mind you are not only risking your own life but those of your fellow good man.
I just don't understand why it's worth your life or somebody else to catch a fish. I fish Cannelton all the time in a 14' tri-hull, a small boat but safe if you watch what your doing. I don't fish in the swift water and I stay away from the discharge area. There are signs posted stay back 150' for a purpose. These waters are not safe for any size boat, but I see people fishing within the 150' foot line all the time. Why isn't this better enforced? I see people fishing next to the lock discharge and it clearly says stay back 300'. My brother witnessed a boat getting caught up in this discharge once. After some screaming and some panicking they where all right and I bet they learned their lesson. Come on people, READ THE SIGNS!!
Sorry I started this thread, I see now that there is already a discussion about the Cannelton accident. So tragic...
