Larry,
Neither, it was at night on the Saco river in Maine. The two fisherman that
were holding hands and pushing the rip were on the sandbar off Plum Island on the
Merrimack.
Hey, I've done it myself many times on rips and rivers in Montana. It's just when you
see something like that happen, it makes you think and hopefully get others to think.
By the way:
The rip on the Saco river is nothing in comparison to the Merrimack.
