    I found this using the Mega SI … What do you think it is ? I was thinking a barge of some sort.. I will mention that this is on the Mississippi River.. The object is below a double wingdam

    How about a roof off of a dock? You are in 11ft of water and it does not seem to have much depth.

    Maybe one of the paddles off of one of those big paddle boats?

    Koonce, do you know the answer and are just playing with our interpretation knowledge?

    Whatever it is the thing is dang big.

    Id also vote for a barge of some sort. Too big to be anything else I can think of.

    Looks like steel grating from a rock screed

    I’m going to stick with my rock screed answer. Looks like you can see all the metal grates and runners. But I obviously have no real idea. I can’t even pick a fish off the si

    I’d say it’s a work platform. Seems like a fine place to loose a jig or crankbait!

    I do not know but I can see all the lures snagged on it. Might be worth it to pull it up.

    Anyone good with reading SI and can circle fish on that picture?

    Based on the SI looking 65 ft each way, that thing looks to be about 23-30 ft wide and 35 or so ft long. That’s big! It also looks tall as it’s casting a pretty big sonar shadow; much more than the wing dams do. Cool find! Time for Dave to do some scuba diving to confirm what it is:)

    Look at the pile of fish in there but also on the shore side of that thing. I want to throw a big ol bullhead right there!

    I’ve never heard of a double wing dam. I don’t know of any on Pools 2 or 3. Are they common down around Prairie du Chien? Do they show double ripple lines when the current and wind are right?

    Do you find them to hold more fish than single wing dams?

    How about a section of dock from the Lynxville float when it busted up in the spring flood a couple of years ago? There were sections floating all over in pool 10 with barrels detaching and floating down the creek….. Maybe it ended up there after the barrels/floats were gone and a nice current break?

    Could it be a barge hatch cover?

    It is the only one I have ever seen…I should dig into why ….

    More fish ? More spots for them to hide !!
