that platform has a major failing... its only 30' below the deadline wire, with a boulder strewn bottom forward of the deadline causing the water there to be a tail-out steelhead WILL lay on bettween our behind slick rock hard bottom or boulders every time.. so the fish all pile up up there, often there will be 20-30 fish above the deadline holding and nothing in the water in front of the platform, but Its not hopeless, just some info for you. I know a lot of places you can fish from a wheelchair, and would be glad to show you.-Brad
