unfortunately you have to register even a pontoon if you're going to run a motor, so take care of that and avoid a ticket.
If I was you I would start somewhere and have a buddy pick me up at a downstream boat launch or park ect.
if your dying to get the pontoon wet do it.. but you can get winters from the bank pretty easily.
that would be extending a drift by walking. side drifting involves a boat.
In a book, it says that it is side drifting from a bank. A boat is basically a movable/controllable wobbly piece of bank right? Just think as the bank as a gigantic uber slow moving boat.
rite now...i'll advise you don't even think of tryin willy on your 8 footer....its raging rite now.....other than that there's bulk of logs and all kind of crap coming down....i donno its not impossible but for sure if it can be postponed...its in the best interest.
Unfortunately no, it does not. It is only dependent on where you are fishing from, i.e. a boat, or bank.. not what speed the water is moving...Sidedrifting was a term coined by boaters, who practice a specific technique...Now referred to as sidedrifting. The only thing you do from the bank without a bobber, or swinging terminal is drift fish. You can extend youer drifts by walking, and you can drift fish water of all speeds...But, sidedrifting can only be done from a boat.
I couldn't resist to retaliate.

There is quite a lot of accessible bank space to drift fish between Gladstone, and Portland proper, and if you can find that water between 1 & 15 feet, you will be in Steelhead country. The high water will make it tougher, but I bet you there are a few spots still very fishable off of 43, all within 5 miles of eachother... Food for thought. They are in there, and they are eating bait.
