Good luck D if you head that way. Warmer temps. coming this week.

Curly I havent fished Cataract in a long time but use to go there and limit out pulling jigs. Had a jon boat with trolling mounted in the middle of boat and would go out into the mouth of a cove and drift sideways back into cove along drop offs and stumps. Never failed to limit out that way plus caught some really big channel cats.
If nothing else will be a change from Raccoon it just gets fished to death, used to you could sit back from a tree top and catch 40 crappie off of it now they get hammered all day long like a assembly line. They get shy real quick seems like. Was talking to Conservation Officers there a couple weeks ago and they said fishing has really went downhill there in last 2-3 yrs, said they were getting a lot of fisherman asking/complaining about why fishing is so bad.
Thought about going to Glen Flint but last couple times I went there all it we caught were 6 in crappie, caught one that was maybe 8.5 in. Used to go there in the early early 90s and tear them up. Raccoon is probably done for the season as water is going to get so low as to be dangerous to launch except for ramp by dam and its a muddy mess usually.
