My father in law lives in Tichner. He is always trying to get me to come to that area "when it is right". Meaning most of the time in the Spring as the woods are draining and the water is falling. I have only made it one time, but the water was still too high. I hate fishing in the woods in a current.
However, he catches a bunch of fish where you are talking about. Most of his fishing is in the refuge. He lives on the gravel road leading to Jack's Bay.
I am a heterosexual male. 2 Chronicles 7:14
"If my people who are called by My name will humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from Heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land."
