There are spots I can't get too but generally the whole river is within casting distance. I've learned to cast sideways and under branches effectively. Also despite its size, the river is much shallower than you think. Wading out into it - although a little nerve wracking in the cloudy(cloudy always seems deeper don't it?) water as you sink in at times - gets you into good casting areas as well as being able to criss-cross the river from high bank side to low bank sides. Its quite workout in waders so def need to be in shape. I would say that other than the deeper outside bends in the river and where it gets "pinched", you can cross at almost any other spot if your brave. Although even the seemingly easiest crossings are full of twigs and branches waiting to trip you up.
