Its safe. Just watch for loose rocks. You do have to be camping to fish millionaires point they are referring to.

I don't fish down there often although it's a lot closer to me than some lakes I fish a lot. You can catch some decent ones there during the winter months as they tend to put on a little more weight. If I were you I would save a few bucks and get a Jon boat and 12 volt trolling motor. Not many places you couldn't fish there on a calm day and so much better than the limited bank fishing.

I have flat wore the crappie out around Millionaire's Point when they stack the ledges.

i went 2 days ago fished on the rocks the wind was too strong to use a cork kept pulling mybait to the shore into the rocks so i was forced to tight line and got hung up so then i just went to the spillway didnt catch anything

im now only gonna go back if i get a boat gonna probably order a blow up boat online you can also put trolling motors on them too and they cost 20% of most john boats
