Went back to this spot again today. It was my day off and I had plenty of "projects", but you just cant beat a couple of good hours of fishing. Threw all fish back today. My neighbor who eats them wasnt with us today. Bill

This is a great spot if you work downtown and want to wet a line during lunch break. Its full of panfish. Fish the "pool" of water directly below the "Pipeline Overlook".We were catching fish on just about every cast until it got dark. We did have two big pole benders, but with the small worm hooks neither got landed. Besides the fish we caught, there are also some large Bowfin (Grinnel) and Flat Heads in there. Stripers this time of year too.
