SFCR Bank/Tube Advice?

[Boise_Tarheel]

Hey gang, me and my friends have a trip to Jackpot planned this weekend and are planning to fish SFCR on Friday. We do not have a boat so it will be from the bank or our float tubes. I have perused the recent reports and it looks like either the far south (backwaters to Big Sand) or far north (Dam) areas are the best bets for this kind of fishing. Any advice from the group as I have never fished there? I read some concerning reports about weeds/algae in the south, can anyone confirm or refute? Thanks!
