“This is NOT an instructional video on how to launch a boat. This is simply a video documenting our fishing trip, and how I chose to launch my boat on that particular day. This type of boat launching is inherently dangerous to people and property. As always, consult an expert before attempting a difficult launch, and LAUNCH AT YOUR OWN RISK!”

A can do attitude and bit of mechanical advantage was all it took this fisherman to safely launch his boat from the shoulder of highway down a 150ft cliff into a river below. If you’re wondering why he decided to take this approach it’s because the regular boat launch was super crowded and he wanted to get to steelhead fishing ASAP. He does go through the steps to pull off a feat like this but really wants to drill the point that this is not a how to video and you should launch at your own risk. The stuff people do to get fish never ceases to amaze:

“A crowded boat launch forced us to head upstream to a nasty launch where very few boats are able to go. Its a launch few people attempt, but the reward was having the upper stretch of a beautiful river all to ourselves.”
