If you've never fished it before, I can understand but quality always outweighs quantity.

You are not telling me anything. I know all about this stretch and the secrets it holds.. I used to shoot rats and catch big cats at the confluence of the P'burg scmitplant and Big D The bite just wasn't there. Big temp drop helped it to be spotty. We threw enough hardware to open up an Ace. The little cats were hungry for the jumpers we stopped along the road for. It was a fun day, regardless . As it should be.
