    On my way to classes this morning at UW-River Falls, I noticed a boat that was out putting around and had the bow mount deployed underneath the bridge in Prescott. It won’t be long now guys!

    Chappy,

    What is the difference in being below vs. underneath the railroad bridge?

    I think they changed it to down stream from the highway bridge. “I think”

    Nobody accused them of fishing, to be honest they probably just wanted to get the boat out for the first test run of the season.

    I don’t know…Depends on what half of the rails your under?LOL
    1. And the poster didn’t say the railroad bridge.
    2.I guess I took it as the road bridge.
