I heard the whites we're up running the river, thought that sounds fun, sat 3 -7pm at Taylor's, swift current no whites but 6 14" k's cranking the bluff, Sunday 8- 2:00 at steel bridge w/ slower current only a few whites a 3lb largemouth, I was disappointed in not catching a lot more whites, normally this time of year you can limit in a few hours. Now I know how Charlie Brown feels, good grief.

That's been my experience over the years in at least 4 states wasting gas money chasing those vile critters.  White bass run = FAKE NEWS:D

Growing up in Northwestern Mo we heard tails of white runs.  Guy owned a resort on LOZ and would call Dad when they started.  We'd pile into the car with the 10 horse Johnson, a tent and all our gear and race down there.  

"You just missed 'em by about a hour."

I've caught them over the years, but never saw the bare hook catching run.  I'd probably freeze up... 

Worked with a guy who admitted to seeing his first deer and stood there jacking every shell through his 30-30 without firing a shot.  I wonder what the fishing equivalent to that would be?  I need to be mentally prepared.

Does anyone know if the tree is still across the river between orleans bridge and Taylor bridge

         Interested in this also. Is it a complete block? Thanks,

At least I've never brought my own chain saw to chase those vile critters.:)

  At least I can now trim trees while being in spot lock mode🤣. Reckon how safe that will be?
