All of that is true. Wilson is 28 miles closer for me than Pickwick...the problem is you can't access all the tailrace from the bank there...as a matter of fact you can't come remotely close to getting behind the boils from the bank. If I could fish it I would as it would save me lots of money and time...but I either fish from the bank or kayak...as does MNfisher. Wilson tailrace is just like fishing Pickwick tail race..you just can't do it from the bank.
