I'm in the exact same boat.. I'm taking my daughter and her friend out for their first ride in my new boat on Saturday.. Her and her friend will do more swimming than fishing, I'm sure. But never the less, they're dead set on me taking them to my "secret spot", as they put it (Kinney Creek). I've been trying to talk them in to swimming somewhere local like the Willy or the Santiam.. They're not having it. If the water is too low, I'd prefer to not risk taking my new boat to, what I affectionately refer to as, "stump city"... Any information would be greatly appreciated.. Thanks all..
Kyle
