yellow bank park/eau clarie river

stop at yellow bank and take a look and i was wonder water too shallow to fish there, in guide book say head upstream to yellow bank say has good smallmouth bass fishing there, i just beleive that boat wont get through,
i wonder if it's a good wader fishing as use old shoe and swimsuit and walk around and find a deep pool to fish ?
any suggest on yellow bank park fishing,
i was look by inverson restasanrt and water too shallow and take look at westside and shallow and not sure about deep like 3-5 ft or somethings..
i wonder is the eau clarie river that go through from weston from ross ave flow down to yellow bank ? i was think about take some wader .

if any suggest about that i will be appericate to get some good information and trying to find a new and different for a good wader fishing there from weston bridge and wader all way down to end at yellow bank and throw some of topwater, shallow crankbait..

I have fished that strech many times great strech you will find musky, lots of northern, some walleye and lots of bass I even remember cathing some nice crappie up there. Some area's are deep 6-8 feet mostly shallow we us to run a canoe down but the water was up nice and high then. Hope this helps.
If you are looking for some molds I may have some for sale get a hold of me.

Kurt,
what kind mold do u have ? well i was looking for somethings as snag resiet jighead like walleye jig mold or a roundhead with nice collar for ties a bucktail the size i have been looking from 1/16 to 5/8 and the hook start with size 4 to 3/0

i wonder how about start fish from westron bridge on ross ave and go downstream all way to yellow bank ? i was looking forward to fish for a smallies with 2 set rigged i has is shallow crankbait and topwater and might bring a extra for grub to find a active smallies, do i need a canoe to float downstream ? how about wader fishing ?

You could wade a good portion of the river, but as mentioned previously, there are sections well over 5-6 feet deep. It's a great canoe trip, especially this summer with water levels normal-above normal, with good numbers of smallmouth bass present and some bonus walleyes and northern pike in the mix as well.

Tight lines,

how water level is at eau clarie river/yellow bank, well i was contact with grand valley adventure about rent a kayak for trip, and they say that water is too high,
just wonder about water level so i got a chance to go out as water level head down asap but there's will be more rain coming

the kayak rental i were plan is sit on top..
