The reason I was there is usually in mid to late November thousands of 8-8.5 inch bluegill stack up in there. While some bluegill were there the big move has not happened yet. The water in there is 20 feet deep. There are also grates on the bottom that have big openings in them that go another 4-8 foot deep. Crappie many times will be suspended above the grates but sometimes they are down in them..as was the case yesterday. Further down river fish were scattered but plenty of them. One can sacrifice some jigs when fishing the grates but it is well worth it.
