all strainers removed except for the one right before stoddard rd. we cut it up but the tree is
just to big. hoping the natural flow will help it along Edit

ran the bantam from 202 down today. class 2 it was not. i didnt get a guage reading but it class3+
all day long. if anyone else ran it today im curious as to their synopsis Edit

Does anyone ever try running over the low "Jambs" at the outlet of Bantam Lake? Edit

DURH Edit

With the floods of the spring of '07 this particular strainer is gone. There is always the
possibility of new ones however. Edit

Strainer warning - Bantam River, CT. There is a corner above the second downstream bridge on Smoky
Hollow Rd. Last fall there was a full sized tree shore to shore that made a big yoke across the
whole river. Guaranteed to ruin your day. There isn't enough time to do anything once you're around
the corner in fast water and the banks are high enough that it probably won't move for quite some
time. Also, if anyone ever goes from RTE 202 instead of Stoddard, be aware of a lot of wood along
the way.
