My MH is below Slough Hollow where the bluffy bank is on the right and flats are on the left.

Yep, that's what I've always heard called Maiden Hole.

I'm going tomorrow too. I've got an 18 y.o. granddaughter visiting from CA and she's never caught a white bass - we'll see if we can fix that.

I may end up at Slough Hollow or above, but I'm going to try not to. I've got a different idea - I'll just put in at Beaver marina and work my way upstream, trolling, slow-trolling, and casting Roostertails and swimming minnows. White bass come up rivers in different bunches, and if there's a bunch up above there's probably other bunches still coming up from the lake. I like to find my own fish if possible and besides, I know some crappie holes extraordinaires on the way up Beaver that just might be working.

I'm torn... Buster tells me he's catching lots of whites in Swan every morning but I want to try to catch them on the fly too. May hit both, Swan first and then either boat to drive to Beaver. Might see you Sam... wave me down- I'll be in the red G-3.

I'll be looking out for you. I'll be in the Tracker with a Suzuki motor - probably the only one containing a blonde teenage girl since it's a school day (this week is Easter vacation in CA).

Today one didn't need a boat. You could just jump from one boat to another one. I put in 30 minutes before dawn little crack and was prolly #20.

Got on fish and got crowded out by 4 other boats.

Don't feel bad DUTCH. I had a guy anchor 5feet from my boat last Sunday. I asked him real politely did he have a question he wanted to ask me or did he just not see me. I was not even wearing camouflage and my flat bottom boat is old wore out green with a blue and white envinrude. He said he liked the spot that I was anchored on, that it was the best spot.

What do you do?
