I am sure lots of people will be dealing with fence breaks at the creeks. I had one where I just run a hot wire across. The creek was still pretty high and it is at a wide spot. Yesterday I stapled the wire to a post and tried to pitch it over but the wind was opposite the current so it didn't work. This morning I made a grappling hook like the use on the crab boats and attached a couple of lunge lines. A light poly rope would have been better but I didn't have any on hand. It took a few tosses but I caught the wire and pulled it across and got the hot wire working.
Amazing what you can learn watching TV. Very Happy
