lots of presure on that little hole. What you see from the road/park is it for that one is real small. If you go up there is alot of pulling and alot of houses on that part and most fish it. Down is what I do thats a small hole as well go over the damm and it some pulling and lost of small pools to fish and few houses on the river. Shoes and long pants are almost a must.

You could drive right up to the river but it has been blocked off on the east side long drag and no place to park. West side has a fence and lots of brush. On the north side of the road is a small pool that is good south side of the road has one of the larger pools on the river and its good just hard to get there now. I fished it alot the last few years but only once this year and that was coming down from mineral wells road. If you want to go out one night this week let me know I get off work at 3 every day.

The north pool has dropped by about 4 foot in the last month.had some good looking spots that are now high and dry need lots of rain. There isstill about eight foot of water on the shouth pool were you had that one blind on the side of the river.
