I dont know if there is an actual name for the location but anyway. I caught a hog there one day. Also got a nice color phase bear within sight of the cafe. I love that area.

Nice fish!!

Oh ya, Bogans, thats it. I thought I recognized that rock. I have landed few from there. Steelie, bass, trout. I love that river.

I have seen a few nice sheep there too.
