How do you fish with 4 generators running?

[Guest rwolfe]

I'm coming down this weekend and was curious as to how you guys fish when they are running 4 generators (fly rod or spinner). I've been down before when they were running 4 generators but that was with boat, which I will not have this time down.

I fish with a fly rod real close to outlet 1 or 2 and at night when less crowded. fish right on the breaking line of the fast and slow water with some extra weight and a dropper.

Well- need to know a few details...

Boat or Wade?

That's the main question.

There are some articles that cover both on this site. We can probably add some to it.

We plan on wading, but with 3 and 4 generators running it won't be very deep.

if you're gonna wade, you might want to try down by the boat ramp, but i really wouldn't recommend it. with 3 to 4 units running, there's a lot of water, and it gets deep quick. your best bet unless boat fising is just from the bank near the outlets.

i don't think i'd wade with 3 or 4 generators running.....

i don't think i emphasized how potentially dangerous wading under 3 or 4 generators is... especially right now. its just a bad idea.

When we say wading with lots of water on were talking knee deep. It makes landing and releasing fish easier. There are places that you can stand just in the water without getting in lots of current.

Yeah, when I said wading, I meant that we wouldn't be in a boat. I don't usually wade with 3 or 4 running. We did get lucky this weekend with the generation. We caugt quite a few fish and had a good time.
