making a trip up soon

hey all,
a few of my buddies and i are going to be making a trip up the first weekend in november. i know conditions change daily as with the weather, just looking for some tips on what they are hitting on ect. going to have limited fishing places due to my friend who is in a wheelchair. only coming up for one weekend this year just to get away and enjoy ourselves.
any comments or posts are appreciated!

thanks for the info !

Im not quite sure when they allow fishing at the walnut creek marina basin but if your buddy is in a wheelchair he can fish the entire way around it if its open for fishing when you come mup.
 
Im going to see if I can find out when unless someone else finds it before I do and posts it.
 
I still think the basin should be reserved for kids and the less fortunate/handicapped. IMO if you are in good health and can use all your extremities , go for a walk to find some fish. 

if the sac is heavy enough (ohh boy) and the current slower, then u don't need any weight.  If you get into faster deeper water you may.  Never put the shot closer than 12" from...your sac.

I think you could find some better places than the Walnut marina basin.  If you want to get away from the nut house, you should be able to access Elk with a wheelchair at the McKean hole or Rick Road bridge.  
 
Might need a little help getting stream side at rick road, but shouldn't be to difficult to access from the one side and give you some more options in a nicer setting.
