So me n big Jim he's retired railroad n Im Vacation Local Semi driver head to the spot n we got it used up to 2 oz cannon balls to get out far enough not to snag Big Jim moved closer to the boat launch and fit in well I would budge Jim lost close to a doz set uo me total 4 after 2 n half hours plus and only two fish saw caught just to the left of me at the big tree next to the water they were wading out n fast n deep water very scary (not me) but they could cast far enough to get into the fish we tried n tried n tied n tied !!
