I usually fish while they are generating, that is my preferred choice as I try to target the big browns and that is when they are more active . I will fish some when they are not generating but that is usually when I will use a kayak. I WILL NOT anchor while they are generating. I have seen several do it, but to me it is just to dangerous. I will normally float down river and then use my big motor to go back up stream. While they are generating I use my big motor as a rudder while I am drifting downstream. I have fished with up to 13,000 cfs and had no problems. I would not advise taking younger ones when the water is rolling that much. I really like my Riverhawk, I had the original and sold it and bought the B-60. I have used it on the lake a few times and it is good in the lake also. Might not want to be on the lake in real windy conditions but other than that it is fine. Please feel free to hit me up with any questions and if you want I can PM you the next time that I head up there. I live in Murfreesboro if you just want to come check it out. Let me know if you have any more questions.
