One sailed right over my head and landed on the other seat beside me, but flipped out of the boat. Another landed on the gunwale and fell out also. Then two, back to back, landed in the boat and flopped madly around. I figure them to be 30 and 15 pounds. These things were jumping 5-6 feet out of the water.

I've heard of carp hitting you in the boat and I now believe it. If I had been going full speed, I would still be in the river and my boat somewhere down by Greenville now.
