Straight down the trail that goes from the parking lot to the river. Theres a huge boulder on the opposite bank and it is just past the little creek outlet that would be to your right. Good spot there, Caught a 24" bow there last year. If you go to the right upstream just before the shallow ripple area is good. Continue up stream almost to the bridge there are some deeper holes that also produce. Really that whole stretch of river at the rest stop has been real good to me. The only reason I haven't been there this year is cause I have a yak now and have been focusing on fishing the pond just below the dam. Haven't tried floating cause I'm usually solo.
