I’ve been using my kayak to drift to spots for about 3 years.My favorite drift(for cats) is from the crow river to the southern tip of Goodin island.there are some steep banks that night crawlers roll down,and some small eddies. A couple af the spots are before the island.If in a boat with motor be very careful.about midway down the island there is a small eddie fallowed by slack water than a good snag. at the southern tip in the summer you can cast into the light rip rap with a freshly dead sucker minnow(remove air sac)about 7 feet under a float.I use a fixed float which is difficult to cast ,but allows the bait to drift naturally when hooked through the tail with no weights.Average catch is between 21 to 27 inches.
At the tip of the island you have to go cross the small stream side which is about 80 feet(waist to chest deep)then go up the hill to the entrance of goodin park.
