Gasconade float trip outfitters suggestions

[Dman]

I thought I could give a report on my trip early this week. I used boiling springs as my outfitter for the shuttle to Shanghi springs on the big piney and floated back to their campground. It took me 29 hours to cover the 8 miles with a lot of fishing, chilling out and an overnight stay at the confluence of the piney and gasconade. The fishing was tough, still caught fish but I really had to work for them.

A 22 1/2 inch walleye was a nice surprise, until the lure and fish got hung up in my wading shoes, which made an interesting hobble back to my camp site, in the dark, when I had to take the shoe off with the 3 1/2 pound fish flopping still attached!

All in all a great trip, thanks again for all the help getting it set up.
