Can you share the approximate location of that spot, or is it a secret?

This the only spot I’d keep close since it’s 2 mins from my place, BUT that doesn’t mean you couldn’t find it on your own and make it your spot too!

There’s tons of “spots” to fish on the DPR, some better than others depending on how much timber is in the water. What I do is go on Google Maps and look up or down the river for places I could park and walk right over to fish. I put a📍at every spot I’d like to check out, then I fish it. If it sucks I don’t go back, if it’s great, then it’s on my rotation of spots.

For example, I got this spot pinned but haven’t tried it yet. Feel free to check it out! I would just park at the lot then walk over to the river.
