[QUOTE="20x, post: 103962, member: 2569"] i thought i should add my theory why... because the inside of the bend before it is hard rock all the material is forced to the outside and and that high face with the wash layer is acting like a choke/squeeze point. then after that at high water the ouside bank widens and that reduces the speed of the flow creating the first drop zone indicated by the larger rocks that are holding there. i have a spot thats different ground and foliated bedrock but nearly an identical scenario right down the to the bend direction but less drop in elevation on the bend. where ive circled is where it was concerntrated the most.....hope this helps mate :cool: [/QUOTE]
