I appreciate everyone's comments. I still have not heard from the Fish and Wildlife people on this subject. I feel they could learn a lot from regularly viewing this site. I hope they are on a daily bases. I guess my final comment is whether or not there will be a no-wake ever on the Dix, erosion of the banks will continue and the way it looks many trees will fall into the river in the next few years. Fisherman trying to catch the river right for bass fishing will continue to be washed out on the bank and life will go on. I would suggest for those who come up the river to slow down and learn the obstacles in the river before you speed. There are many hiden long and stumps under the water. For those who may fall into the river even during the summer months, need to realize there is a cold under current that constantly flows under the warmer water on top. Life jackets should be worn when boating below any dam.
