Floating The Meramec 11/20

[WannabeAngler]

First season of actually fishing, and I have Friday off. You guys suggested the Big River to me last time I needed help and I enjoyed the day. With it being 70+ this Friday and it seemingly being summer and fall's final breath, I'm trying to figure out how to spend my day. It looks like after the weekend's rain, the water is up just a little bit, but should be better at Steelville and that area by Friday.

Was considering going to Ozark Outdoors and doing the Bluffs float to enjoy the last good weather of the year. But, before I planned that, I figured I'd at least check for suggestions if maybe things won't be as good as they may be in my mind. Worth the shot to float for the day? Or should I look elsewhere?

Just do it

Agree, just do it. Used to fish around the Bluff's allot when it was an active campground. My Uncle, Stepmom, and a few others still own a couple lots down there.

Well, that went 100mph to 0mph quickly. Got a call we were unfortunately exposed to the virus shortly after I posted this. 
 

So I’ll have to save this for another day. Thanks for the help though!
