The area your boat is in, is the most beautiful part of the Mississippi.
On the Mississippi just stay between the buoys, that is the channel and
is
11ft deep minimum.
Going up river, green buoy to the right.
Once you are used to the river, you can venture off the channel.
All kinds of sand to pull up onto and spend the night or longer (free).


In case you missed the news, 4 lost in boat accident, just north of
Lacrosse,WI on the Mississippi Sunday.
Got too close to the down river side of dam fishing, and when he pulled the
anchor, his motor would not start.
Current pulled the boat back upriver into the tail water of the dam.
Father, wife and two kids. They found 3 today, 1 child still missing.
Always start you motor and make sure it is running properly, before pulling
the anchor.
And the current downriver of a dam will pull you back upriver to the dam.
