    End of July... I may be able to do some fishing by then. I would go with some Bandit 300 type diving baits (equivalent Arkies and others will work as well) and try along the river channel edges close to the mouths of the creeks. Not as familiar with depth around the Goose Pond area but if you find 20' flats close to the river you should be able to catch some fish. We typically run between 1.8-2.2 mph. As far as night fishing, get away from the bridges and try the creek channel edge just off the main river. If you can idle around and find bait fish in the area, set up pretty close to them. GOOD LUCK!

    My best days have been in 18-20 FOW trolling 300s at 16-18' deep. I usually troll at 1.6-2.2 mph and use line counting reels to control depth. I fish usually submerged road beds and creeks beds near the main channel. Find that shad patterned baits produce the best.
