Can we talk about how a tiny gravel pile changed my whole pump setup

I was working a job at the Merrimack River last spring, and the suction kept choking on a spot that looked clean. Turned out a small gravel bank just four feet from the intake was shifting with the current and messing with my flow. My foreman, Mike, told me to drop a portable baffle plate in front of it, and I cut my downtime by half. Has anyone else had a weird bottom condition force a gear change like that?

Gravel pile just wanted to see what you'd do without it.

Read something the other day about how that move actually helped some people figure out their own playstyle better. Kinda makes sense if you think about it.
