Simple solution, don't travel downstream from where you know. Don't go anywhere you wouldn't go in a kayak or canoe.

Re: Water Gap Boat Ramp
 

Poxono has that dead water cove, but not too good (although a huge largemouth once smashed topwater), need to get out in the current & up--and it's powerful up. But if the river is LOW and you launch AT the Gap, the park service launch, you might be OK with an electric up to the I-80 bridge, and that's nice fishing there. I guess you can always launch in low water & see if you make headway, and if not, just beach and pull the boat back to the ramp & so be it, but my guess is that with river low, it would be no problem.
