Some things to consider, from someone who's fished down there before... If the locals are out in force, the fish are there. Catching them may be another story. If there are no locals on the banks, you're probably wasting your time. If you are planning to use a boat be aware of rapidly changing conditions on the river. The BSF is a designated "wild river", it rises and falls in a mater of hours so a ramp that was usable in the morning may not be usable by afternoon, the riffle you went through is now a rock garden or the gentle current may become dangerously swift. Take a spare prop and tools. At some point the river becomes no motors allowed so check the park regulations.

Bank fishing is straight forward enough, limited access so pack light and plan on footing it a ways. also plan on losing equipment due to snags. Keeps your vehicle locked up tight and don't temp anyone by leaving gear in sight.

Please also be aware of the fragile ecco system. Consider releasing any females that have not yet spawned. The simple truth is that the walleye are hard to catch, so enjoy the scenery, adventure and the nice smallmouth that you might hook into, but don't be disappointed if you blank on the eyes.
