Well, after much discussion, Here is where we're going. Launching at 6:30. Here is some info from Bull about where to go to launch. Take it all the way down to the Y which is what they are calling blackhawk rd. and it will take you to the picninc area playground im talking about. You can then drive down that hill and unload and then park back in the parking lot. The spot we luanch at should'nt be hard to find. It's got grooves from where we load/unload and is almost straight down from the parking lot. Looks like bass, crappie, and some catfish. Who's in?

Just to clarify go all the way down Rockwood Park Drive N. the road that come right off by his marker on that map.
Channel cats, flat heads, bass, crappie, drum, and even the occasional sandbass if you get lucky.

125' from the parking lot, with the ability to drive to the water if i choose to is a lot more tempting than the 1/4 mile drag  I would call it a 75% yes

I'm thinking about joining all of you in the morning if that's ok. I'm ready for something different.
Are you talking about the parking lot that shows up as Rockwood Golf course on the map? I just want to make sure I'm heading to the right place. It's 65 miles for me, so I probably can't afford to make a wrong turn.

I will be there tomorrow as well, short of me drinking too much tonight (it IS Friday afterall) And looking at that launch, i think i am going to clean out my yak some tonight to lighten it as much as possible... Looks like a pretty grassy area without much of an opening

Have any of you guys launched at that spot before? G.A Gonzales and I fished that stretch of river yesterday and those banks are pretty steep.

I'm going by there today to check it out and make sure the water level isn't too low.

The launching is fine they just have to find the spot we launch from all the time. Shouldn't be too hard to spot as it is the easiest looking spot to launch from when you walk down there. We do it all time. Just have to slide your kayak down and set it in the water. There are some rocks to stan on close to the bank or in the water. It's really not that bad. Water lever should be fine also Ive never seen that stretch get very low.

Looks like a pretty grassy area without much of an opening The spot we use has a wide enough opening that it isnt bad. My friend launches his Native Mariner there fully loaded all the time. I wish I could go so I could show you guys exactly where but I think you should be able to spot it pretty easy.

This might be the weirdest, most pointless post ever. I am not against golf, since I cannot but suspect it keeps armies of the unworthy from discovering fishing

The bite gets alot tougher in the summer. The big ones arent as ready to bite as normal. Fish slow out in the deeper rocks and Im sure you could get a few to bite.
