I catch **** from the local guys a lot about that. The reason is that I had two gouges in the bottom of my old Outlaw due to hitting sticks at 60+mph on the Alton pool of the Mississippi. You know how I keep my stuff flawless and I swore I wouldn't go again.

Now if the Alton pool was as nice as your Quad Cities pool on the Mississippi, I'd do it in a heartbeat. The water up there is clearer than at the Ozarks. Down here its muddy as hell from the Illinois/Missouri rivers dumping into it.

Some guys at work who fish a lot at shelbyville say the water level is really low, but I cant confirm.
