Actually that does help me Don. Thanks. A falling river will draw the fish out of the creeks back into the river.

I need to start finding out more information on fishing for crappie in the Ohio River.

I have studied fishing for trout in streams so that may help me in fishing a river system.

I think that the trick is to find out the water levels and the flow rates etc. Then get out there and put some time on the water.

I may even start trolling for crappie on the Ohio River. I could end up catching some big fish that way.

So you went all the way up to Owensboro, KY. I have two 6 gallon steel gas tanks for my little 35 hp motor so that should allow me to get around the river a good ways. I always felt afraid of running out of gas with just one 6 gallon tank on the River. Now I know if I go upstream on 6 gallons that I can make it back downstream on the other 6 gallons and I also carry an extra 1 or 2 gallons spare gas can for emergencies. Knock on wood, but so far I have never run out of gas in my boat... not yet. Tomorrow I probably will run out of gas after saying that. LOL
