    Not sure of the distance, but about a 20 min run by boat.

    That's with the boat in the water, not just the prop in the water.

    I saw some tournaments there that I would like to fish but they're all leaving from Ledgerock. I've only been above New Light creek one time so I'd have to make a little run.

    You don't wax, you sand.

    Re: Falls Lake??? (Lunkerlure)

    stay IN the river channel, swing wide by the point you turn left at to head to 50 Bridge...then stay to the left of the bouys past 50 ramp to turn right to head down river...then stay IN channel. 12 mins from Ledge Rock to the mouth of Upper Barton Creek counting the no wakes and driving like you have some good sense going thru the S turns. Falls is about 3 ft low still.

    Thanks for the replies. I forgot that I've made that run one time but it was probably 10 years ago. Hopefully we'll get some good rain soon.

    we have had plenty of rain. The COE seems to love to keep the dam open and let the rainfall out.
