Wadable Stretches?

[eric1978]

I posted this same question in the intro section, but I thought I would stick it here as well for better results. I'm planning on taking a buddy fishing this weekend who probably can't handle a marathon day of wading. We're a little tight on time this weekend, so we're planning on leaving the canoe at home and just walking a few miles up or down from an access. I was thinking of trying Mineral Fork, upper Big River, Joachim Creek or the upper Bourbeuse since they're the closest. You guys know any stretches that are easily wadable on these streams? We're just looking to hit a few pools and land a couple of the brown ones. C&R only, of course. Thanks guys.

I know the Bourbeuse pretty well. It's all pretty shallow, so wading shouldn't be much of a problem at all. Any stream stretch you pick will probably be pretty easy to wade. There's plenty of access.

It's not a well known stream for some reason, but the fishing can be pretty darn good for bass, catfish, and sunnies.

I haven't been there in almost a month, but I may give the lower river a try this weekend. It's not a stream you'll hear a lot of people talk about, but don't let it deter you. The fish are definitely there.
