[QUOTE="scrotcaster, post: 158459, member: 884"] Best advice I got when i first started fishing the river in a boat was: 1. Go slow the first couple times out, we all like to give it the gas.. don't, 2. Drive upstream till you figure out the channel, much easier to push off a sand bar with current helping you, 3. Have you stuff ready to load/unload prior to getting to the ramp, My best advice : In all honestly i was intimated fishing the river at first coming from only fishing little lakes before and to then dealing with moving water (current), everyone having expensive supped up boats and me in a little lund mr.pike, hearing horror stories of people getting cussed at loading docks to people taking out lower units on dead heads. However, once i figured out I have just as much right to fish the river as everyone else and a couple successful outings, i grew some confidence. Remember its a learning process but the best way to learn is by putting a oar in the water., and once you get the hang of it, It can become a lot of run !! [/QUOTE]
