It is possible to walk upstream from the Tilden bridge when the water is low. I have done it a few times. Getting under the bridge is easy, but just upstream where the old bridge was is a little tricky and a few deep holes. I usually skirt the bank and there is an old fence there that you can creep along and a few trees and brush. This area is only about 60' long. Once past that, you can walk the gravel bars and fish for about a mile or so up stream with no problem. Then you will hit a large bend in the river and I have not gone past this as the banks are steep. Fishing there is like most areas, hit and miss. This is on the west side. If the river is lower like is was a few weeks ago, you can pretty much wade the river just about any where you want. Down stream is quite a bit deeper.
