Yesterday I put my bass boat in at the new boat ramp just west of low water bridge. (maybe not the smartest thing I've ever done!) I ran slowly to the falls and into the slough. I really didn't fish but just looked around. In the main creek channel there was some 8 ft deep water. Some guy bank fishing in the slough told me this stetch was full of crappie, redears, smallies, and even walleyes. Crappie and redears, sure, even smallies but walleyes? Does the stretch from low water bridge to the falls get much pressure? Any advise would be appreciated (no, I'm not asking for directions to your honey hole!) Thanks in advance.

It does get a lot of bank fishing pressure. I'm sure there are quite a few people who boat fish it also. I haven't done it in years but, I fished it with my ex brother-in-law in his bass boat and we caught a bunch of bass. The walleye are in there too, by what I've been told, but I've yet to catch one.

If fishing was easy it would be called catching.

I would think you are talking about sauger, not walleye. I know they are caught further on downstream as well, but have only heard of that and not witnessed personally. That is more black bass country IMO.

There are only three things in life that are certain : death, taxes, and the wind blowing at Capps Creek!
