Red Deer river tolman bridge

[socal]

Me and my Dad are heading down there this weekend wanted to know if the river is deep enough to run a 12 foot with a 9.9hp? Was down there a few years ago had pretty good luck from shore... But heard that there are some big eyes to the east of the bridge downstream aways.

I heard the water is quite low and very clear. The goldeye were hiding until after supper time.

yes, b ut there are plenty of bars and boulders to hit and the launch is shallow on the west side anyways. good luck.

We were dragging our canoe there last year in high water. I wouldn't try it.

Ok? i know were it is i just wanted to know if you can but a boat in it.

I don't suggest it unless you have a river boat. I run that river a lot with my boat and trust me your prop won't last too long. Plus, I don't think you'll be able to get on plane going upstream with a 9.9.
