I was surprised too, but honestly we didn't see as many fish as I had seen a few years back. We did from Grinders Ferry (hwy 65) to Dillard's Ferry (hwy 14)

yeah, he dumped on the first set of Rapids we hit and almost took me out. I have no idea how I didn't go. And then day 3 he dumped out again and just said fawk it and took a bath

I threw a mepps, rebel crawfish crank bait, tubes and crawfish soft plastic. Even threw some Mr. Hooties and small spinners. The fish we did see were on the move surprisingly. Saw them in small schools headed upstream. Some of the best looking areas we didn't even see a fish. Saw more carp than anything which was surprising to me. I don't recall seeing any last trip went on which was 12yrs ago though

That looks like an awesome trip. Did you bring your own kayaks? $50 for the shuttle sounds like a great deal. How many days/nights did it take? What are the rules on camping out there? Are there designated areas or can you pretty much pitch a tent anywhere?

We always do from hwy 14 to buffalo city

Pretty sure one of those places had a Blair Witch type critter in the woods.

Heard something fall down the mountain in the middle of the nite. Found a dead doe at the bottom of a tall cliff the next morning. Always wondered wtf made her jump

We were lucky to survive. Tuthilltiger knows what I am talking about.

Yea well mine is a true story

How long of a trip do you usually do? I was thinking something like 3day/2night would be fun. How's the water flow? Is is mostly paddling or floating?

They offer rental during spring and summer. We took our own. We did 4 days/3 nights. You can go longer or shorter. There are many places to launch and pick up. Throw a tent up anywhere you'd like.

Our people were flexible on how long we could stay out there. Problem is, ending up in an area where they can get you.

Your fishing trips always seem to have similar endings

Where are y'all floating in MS? We normally do Vicksburg to NTZ

I'm honestly not allowed to say
its a smaller river that not a lot of people know about

Ah. I personally like the smaller rivers. Homochitto is always fun, and so is the buffalo here too. I want to do the Tennessee Tom up north
