[QUOTE="richg99, post: 251708, member: 4376"] Most of my use in TX is on the shallow salt-water flats, where the depth is not more than a couple of feet. Where I fish, I do not experience the type of current that a full-fledged river would bring. I doubt that you would have the soft bottom normally required to stick the pin in. Most rivers that I have been on have a very rocky bottom. I used a cast-off brass curtain rod. Put a screw eye through one end. Stick it into the muck and clip a line onto it. No fastener at all on the boat, just a line to a cleat. You might go to a garage sale and see if you can find something similar for a few bucks. Make it, and try it in various locations. If it worked, then build a more permanent rig. R [/QUOTE]
