And how do you jug below the dam in the river? It seems to me that the current would be far too strong to jug fish... does you boat just drift roughly the same speed as the jugs? Do you think the fishing is better below the dam than in the lake?

Also... looks like the consensus is braided fishing line. I'm on my way to get some now!
