    Helms landing fishing from a jon boat

    Hey guys, I have searched numerous Cumberland River trout posts. I am wanting to put a 16’ long 6’ wise trailered John boat with a 50 lb trolling motor and a 5 hp gas motor. I see the average flow for the next day is 10,000 with flow starting “2 or more” generators. Is this good flow or too little/much. There is no flow from midnight to 8am. Then the open 1 gate from 8-10. Is this enough water to launch in? Is it difficult to troll or gas power back up stream. The boat will run about 4 mph in a lake with 2 people. Taking my daughter for a day trip. Was going to use spinners or live bait. Your feedback is very much appreciated.
