According to the river stage predictions at McGregor, the river level and water temp will be EXACTLY as they were at last years BFL Prairie Du Chein. The only difference is it’s a month sooner 
. The predicted stage is 7 ft even (McGregor). Last year was 7.1 at take-off. So if you had a good spot last year but needed a little more water to get to it…don’t think you’ll get it this year since it’s a month earlier.
Sure wish it would stay around 7.75 ft min! 
not that I care…I’m locking to Pool 8
