Fish-n-Map co.

Or a local map store, they might have maps of the entire river that shows everything including the main and side channels. But those maps might only go upstream to the Tri Cities, the ones I bought I only wanted to go that far north.

Top quality navigational charts:
http://www.charts.noaa.gov/OnLineViewer/18553.shtml" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
http://www.charts.noaa.gov/OnLineViewer/18551.shtml" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I believe those are the two that you want.

Here's where you can buy them: http://www.nauticalcharts.noaa.gov/staf ... .htm#paper" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

ALSO! You now have the option to download at no charge and print them up yourself, or, just the section you expect to be using. Maneuver around in the above links to figure that out, I haven't done that as of yet.

Any time!

What's with all of this rain? The 16th and already the third most precipitation for March on record.

Those NOAA charts are large and cumbersome to use while fishing. AMX's fishing map may be better for small boat application. BUT you did ask for top quality navigational.. https://www.fishnmap.com/item.php?item=865" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; has popular fishing spots marked on it and it's a lot less expensive.
Are you spending a week on one of those house boats?
