Hey 4Salt,

I don't do that area in a DB but a sled instead. (my mom said something about a poet...) However I can tell you that if you get the chance to use the DB again, do the Rockport to Concrete drift. The water is slightly bigger, past the sauk, which is adding a little color - bonus. There is a lot os good structure to fish especially if you're pulling plugs. The distance is about the same and I would imagine the water speed slightly faster since there a little more water. The only place I think you might have to look out for is past the Sauk at the head of Sauk bar. The water get ultra skinny there. There are two paths you can choose the first will pull you over naturally but be aware that the current wants to send you to the bank and there are lots of down trees at the edge of the bank on the South side, the other is to fight the current pull and continue heading down toward the beach, hugging the North side. At the headend of the Sauk bar there is a narrow channel the will pull you through very close to the beach and then send you across river. The rest is pretty easy to judge. Would of posted this before but hadn't gone down through Jackman yet this year until this past weekend. Good luck nextime.
