How many of you have success when you have tried fishing outgoing current areas? I know moving water is moving water, but......... will fish hold above a dam vs. just letting themselves flow through the gates?

Anyone ever get into them heavy? or just stumbled across a loner fish by trying this?

I fish current breaks near to and in inlets and outlets quite a bit, and successfully.

moving water is good! regardless of where it is ... bass tactic 301 ... great plan for reducing the old addage that 80% of the fish live in 20% of the water ... current equals food, oxygen and disoriented baitfish ... all good when targeting predatory fish including bass and muskies ...

One of the biggest muskies I've ever raised came on a cast that almost got hung up on the wire that holds the markers just before the dam. maybe at most 10yards from the water running over the #*^@..
