We had a terrible experience Saturday afternoon on the delta. We were about a mile past the Discovery Bay bridge. I think there is a place up there called Rivers End. Anyways, there was some black pipes tied together to mark off the area where the pump stations are. I was about 50 yards away and was trying to put my board on. The next thing I new I was getting pulled under the pipes. I had no idea the current was that strong near those pipes. I hit my head on the pipe and it made me a little disorientated. Fortunatley my crew was able to get close enough to pull me out of the water. The current was the strongest I have ever experienced out on the delta. In just seconds I drifted at least 50 yards. Lesson learned, stay away from the black pipes.
