below the bridge is fairly clear on the bottom, I have one of the new Lowrance HDS with side scanning and it gives a great image of stuff on the bottom- not too much to worry about just below the bridge...now upriver is a different story, just past the crane/barge, there is a stretch that is just a mess on the bottom- big trees with branches sticking up for about 100 yards, last week I watched boat after boat get snagged up right there, you could see it coming....
nothing going on Wednesday as we shook it off and got back to trolling, less fish showing up and nothing hit our poles or any boats around us, only excitment was a shirthead guide in a blue Tracker that blew in and threw a 4foot wake at us and several other smaller boats fishing below the bridge...
good luck to anyone fishing over the long weekend, the main run in the 'slaw' should be starting soon, we are heading out again Wednesday (with a new netting communication process that should help us...)
Cheers, roger
FYI- I was wearing my GOPRO and got the whole fight on HD....this is a screen shot near the end...check out the focus on my wife's face in the upper corner, we wanted this fish but it was our first try at netting a big fish and we almost got it and we learned a lot...
