no its not a wake its a wave

[Mario228l]

is that a wake

[chris082681]

@Mario228l It's created by the flow of the river (in this case a tidal river). waves or holes are formed when water pours over the top of a submerged object, causing the surface water to flow back upstream toward the object.

Holes are often "sticky" and can hold objects (or people) for extended periods of time. This is generally when the inexperienced die in white water.

Skookumchuk, is a nice wave, it wouldn't hold a person for long, the "boils" downstream however would be a problem.
