Anybody ever fished the Diversion Channel just south of Cape Girardeau?? My buddy is wanting to do some fishing this weekend since the weather's gonna be nice. I'd like to go out on the river, but I don't have all of my "big fish" gear together yet, still waiting on my rods to come in.
We were thinking about putting in at the ramp next to the interstate, going upstream, and fishing for some channel cats. Is the diversion channel plenty deep enough to run a 17' boat in? I see boats out there quite a bit so I assume it is. What kinds of baits work best? Whats some good structure to fish around? We plan on going upstream and just looking for some logpiles, small current breaks, etc.
Any info you guys could give me would be appreciated.
Thanks
