Mouth of the Feather.....
David,..... Never fished there but have been there (on the bank) during normal water years and drought years. In drought years, the bar can extend out from the verona side of the river, thirty to forty yards and be completely bare . The drop off from the side of the bar, then, is steep and where there's current it's probably dangerous to wade . Easy to fish from the dry sand, tho. I've seen boats anchor on the sand, there and hold in the current. Bill said he'd waded there before and undoubtedly knows more about that than I.....
Years ago, I spoke to one of the original flies for Striper guys at Kienie's shop (his last name was Humphreys) about night fishing up there. He said that it was one of the wierdest places he'd ever fished due to upwellings of conflicting currents..... He, also, said he caught some very big Stripers, there.
