If we do have it up there I say we make it a daytime trip. You know that area the best so want do you think?
Chris, it shouldn't be a problem. There is a nice sand beach on the left side of the lower dam that could be the meeting place.You don't really get into problems with rocks until you go to the upper dam. As far as bait goes there are plenty of options the skips should be in pretty good soon and shad haven't been a problem...it's all about water level. When we decide when we all can meet I'll suggest a ramp, there are three close Louis and Clark is right there but it can be a pain if the core gets excited, then there;s the amphitheater next to Shermanmitton bridge and the 111 ramp.all are fairly close. I know there are several guy's here that know this area well enough to get to the area I'm talking about at the lower dam,Mhall, Fisheater, onemorecast, and I'm sure huricanebob have all been up there along with several others. If we all can pick a day we should be in for a good time...Chuck
