so ..stupid question here.. are we supposed to wear our float vests all the time?

be careful on the river heres another web site you can look at before you plan a trip.Water Management, Little Rock District, Corps of Engineers

Since you were going up river from the harbor, a couple of mile up river, I am guessing you were just below the 79 bridge on the left bank, correct? There is some nice fishing in that little back water there, but there is also an unmarked dike (or something) at that bak water. I used to live in PB a few years ago, and hit it 2 times untill I decided NOT to fish it unless I was in the canoe and just launched from the road. I also know of a couple guys that did the same thing, without the trolling motor issues.
