[QUOTE="PSG-1, post: 250192, member: 6937"] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPiMW11n0eY Sampit River, the smallest river in SC As you can see in all my river videos, our rivers here in coastal SC are mostly comprised of swamps and flood plains, with wide expanses of river. Farther inland on most of these rivers, you will find black water, caused by tannins (with the exception of the Great Pee Dee, its water is red, as it originates from the mountains of NC, bringing red clay and other sediments along its course) But other than the Great Pee Dee, all the rivers are black water once you start going inland. Many of them are designated as scenic rivers, with white beaches and sandbars. One of these days, I'm going to go farther inland on some of these rivers, and get a chance to really put my jet to the test, running in the narrow, shallow water. I'm a little nervous about running in areas where there is no tide to float me off a shoal if I screw up, though. I've got no problem pushing the envelope in the marsh, or on the tidal areas of the rivers, but inland, where there is no 6 foot tide range to save you from a shoal, it's a different story. [/QUOTE]
