Fairly self-explanatory, although perhaps it should be called "Left-Middle-Left". Catch the wave train on the left-hand side, work slightly right, drop back left. A great place for eddy hopping if you're in a hardboat, quite possible to run without any crew strokes if you're guiding a raft (although that has been known to terminally bore commercial crews, so only do it as a novelty).

I love to hear from my readers, but I get a lot of mail. If you're writing to set up a rafting or other outdoor adventure trip in the southeast Tennessee area, contact the folks at OAR , my favorite outfitters.
