Hate to say it but having grown up on Ottumwa and fishing the river since I was like 9.The river isnt very habitat friendly for whites. They like less current and softer bottoms for spawning. Plus the floods youve guys had the last few years wouldve blown alot of fish out of the area.I rember back in the late 70"s fishing the cat walk with old man Green and the crew. Whites crappies and catfish and in the spring walleyes. Thise old boys taught me a ton about fishing.
