Partner and I are gonna try and fish the river side of the Media Bass. Of course the first tourney is this Saturday on Chico. I have never been on the lake in my life and my partner says he has once about 20 years ago. My question is; is it safe to run the lake most everywhere? Anything in particular I need to be aware of for safety. We're not gonna get to pre fish so we will be hitting the water in the blind saturday morning. Will also take any and all inside info
