Heading out to test my new waders today. I'll let everyone know how it goes.

Drove over it in Plainfield the other day. The weeds there looked like green blankets in the water. Have fun and good luck.

We parked at knock knolls park around 8:30-9 and hiked to the confluence of the two branches. The west branch was very shallow and almost all weeds. The east branch is a lot deeper and we worked our way back up river for about three hours. I had a blast. I totally get wading after just the one trip. I only managed to land one northern that was about 16". My dad hit a very small rock bass and a decent sized largemouth but as it was approaching noon and we were looking at 97 degree heat, the fish weren't biting all that much. But I didn't fall over and we caught a few fish, so wading trip number one was a complete success in my book.
