Any body fish the river below Lake Catherine? I heard the walleye were on a tear there. Saw a pic today of a 33" 12.5lb fish today at the Xpress plant.

If you beleive anything I just said, then I have some ocean front property for you in Arizona. I would love to sell it to you, dirt cheap.Rofl
I lived in AZ for a while and never saw the ocean from any where there!! LMOA. I have a friend fishin around Malvern, and they have been killin the walleye in the river. Bass too. Just thought I'd get a few conformations, and let people know. I know the fish are there, but he said I needed a jet motor to navigate the river and the shoals. I need a fishin buddy over that way. Trade some fishin spots. N. Miss crappie fishin for some walleye fishin etc. As you can tell, I have my own boat. LOLQuote:

I'll be over that way all next weekend for Arkansas Canoe Club Rendezvous and might have to give it a shot from my raft and/or flat back canoe. Wasn't gonna take my little 2.5 Merc, but this puts a little pepper in the gumbo. BigRiver, I'll be glad to float you down that stretch any time you want. Just say the word.Quote:

No comment on lines one or two, but the raft is a fourteen footer, can handle up to 1800 pounds and is mighty comfy.Quote:

I built a frame for it and it will take a 120 quart cooler, two big dryboxes, big propane bottle, shovel, dry bags full of gear, and anybody who can find somewhere to sit down the river on a multi-day float trip. I get lots of second and third looks whenever I break it out. It's a hoot.
