You can fish in there for 3 hours without a strike, then all of a sudden all hell will break loose.

I would take the river all the way around instead of taking the west route. Sandbars, trees and flats will block the way most times. The lillies can be a major problem when you go to pull over...bring a long handle rake to open path to the pullover....good luck!

Reefman thanks for the advice dont look like i will be going there i dont have a small boat i run a 18 foot triton aint no way we dragging that over anything

No. i don't think ya gonna pull that over! However, watch the river stage at Butte Larose; when it goes above 16ft plus you can drive on in! Fishing still can be great with the river rising, water will be muddy up front but much better toward the back....
