Low Water - Where's The Spoonbill Hanging Out ?

[CBNMO]

River gage is down to about 4.4 feet and falling slowly. Anyone have any tips on where the Spoonbill are holding out? Some friends are coming home this weekend and they say after they wash off the foreign sand, we ARE going snaggin ! But where to start ?

I wasn't sure how far upstream they had made it by now?

I would not go to the dam... I have been hitting the james hard for spoonies and the fish never made it to the dam...if it were me i would go to walnut springs and just work my way up.

We finally made it out yesterday, put in at the canoe rental below Blunk, was a few carcass's laying by the ramp, we snagged from Blunk ramp down to Walnut Springs ramp. No fish. Might have hit a couple on the end of the snag? Not sure. My new transducer is broken on the fish finder so it's out of commission. Trolled, casted to both banks and notta. Had fun anyways.

Met some folks with a jet drive and they said they had been fishing the upper part of the river and didn't do any good so they had come down there.

Stopped at Blunk the night before and a couple guys had a mess of Whites. Said they were only catching males around there. No rain yet ?
