Does anyone have knowledge of this drift? What flows(cfs) allow for a new DB'er to drift this section? Thanks for any info.

If I were floating it for the first time, I would pack about 50 feet of rope and slide my boat in at the Lewisville highway bridge. First, float the long hole which ends in a class 2+ run which I take on the south side. From there to Daybreak it is fairly straightforward except that I like to be on the north bank just above the Daybreak bridge due to construction debris from the old bridge which is in the south side channel. I would wear waders as there are skinny places, and watch for new sweepers (trees in the water). About 700 csf (at the Heisson gauge) is about minimum flow for me to float and it is best for me at about 800-1400. One last thing: the caretaker has locked the Daybreak gate as early as 4:30 in the past, so I would spot the rig with trailer there before floating as the lot has traffic teeth and you can always get out but not in. Hope this helps. email me for anything more specific.
