The last time I fished pool 8 (mid-1990's), I left a skeg on a wing dam. Those were the days of navigating with a hand held Garmin black and white with NO maps. I plan on not repeating, since I have Navionics and Lakemaster chips. But I am suffering from river-phobia.
So the water is currently at 5.4' Is that low, high, scary, good, great???
Also, this is an early October trip out of Stoddard. Should I look mostly at main river stuff for smallies or Largemouth, or more backwater focused?
Any advice is GREATLY appreciated.
