Whites update?

Anyone been back out after whites again

This weekend should be ok but the weather is still cool for a full run. If we actually get the rain Friday and Sunday it may trigger them. Supposed to snap back cold though for four or five days.

I'm planning on taking the boy tomorrow afternoon, hopefully we can luck into a few around Orleans.

I was considering putting the kayak in at the ole bridge pillars and move up the river from there

is that easy access at the old bridge pillars?  say, easy enough to load/unload a small jon? 

ive driven by on water but never been there on land. can you pull up close to the water?

[Dirtrider389]

If the water is low it's very easy, if it's normal pool it's not bad but ull want 4wd, if it's high it can be pretty rough

I sank a silverado to the skidplate one night by the old bridge pillars. Where there is gravel it is usually fine, I just made a bad decision and it was my fault. If the lake is low, you can pull past the little "parking circle" (4wd is necessary) and get closer or if the lake is high you could manhandle your boat to the water easily. Walking is no problem. Just be careful becuase even if an area looks okay just rememeber that sometimes the COE keeps the lake at or right above normal pool or higher for months into years and that stuff almost never fully dries out. Experience and long night taught me, I had to have a buddy come pull me out. Good luck and be careful.

Zero whites for me around Orleans

Probably a good thing we went crappie fishing instead
