[cool][#0000ff]Maybe too high for wimpy fishermen, but the fish like it just fine. Some of the normally easy access spots might be a bit damp and dangerous right now, but if you can find a spot to set up, to fish holes, pockets or breaks in the current (behind bridge pilings), you can catch fish.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]Other great spots are where slow moving drainage canals or creeks dump into the river. They usually provide a slack water side channel that is attractive to many species. Those are good places to fish for suckers about now too. They will be grouping up to spawn on gravel.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]It's going to take a lot of weight to hold the bottom and you are likely to get some snags, but if you find the right spot, the fish should be hungry and waiting.[/#0000ff]

I fished the river last night on a bend, the current would settle my bait right on the "old" bank. The bullheads were biting like mad but only got 1 big channel.

If you can find a decent place with some slack current the fish are bitting. 15 Channels, 25 Mud Cats, in the last two days. YAHOO!!! I'll post a report later with a couple keepers I kept.
