Probably fine. Saw a pair of guys in a 10 foot tinny today. Went down shallow riffles into a run sideways...standing up inside the boat. Absolutely clueless. Was hoping for a good Vid but they pulled it out!
There's no secret spots. Just find a place to park near the river and start fishing. The fish are everywhere and constantly moving through the season. The popular spots are already over fished because of easy access.
