I'm a regular kayaker. This makes zero sense. The Ohio is huuuuge. There's nothing to be gained by raising a river so large in a kayak other than the flex of doing it.
We're not talking about some of the shallower rivers with rapids that you might bottom out on in sections during dry spells. This is a deep, wide river.
it wasn't the ohio river, it was the lake in caesar creek state park, which feeds into the nearby little miami ~ 50 miles north of cincy and the ohio.
