@YaYa_521 in response to this part in the video above where he talks about checking out what might have been a raft, these are the results from that search (BBM):

"On 12-03-21 the Mendocino County Search & Rescue Team were able to deploy five Type 1 searchers that searched 8 miles of Eel River riverbed in the area of the items noted during the aerial search.

Several items of debris were located which were not associated with John Davis.

The items believed to have been raft material were actually remnants of orange trash bags commonly used by Caltrans for roadside trash removal.

Searchers noted no signs of human foot/shoe prints in the sand near the waterline in the search area. This search area was downstream from the 8 Mile bridge on Highway 162".
