walleye at lake rathburn in iowa

can anyone tell me if the rocky part of the dam behind the spill way at lake rathburn holds any walleye? thanks

I assume you mean below the spillway? I think it depends on the time of year, water level, and if the DNR has been there shocking for the hatchery. I went down last year and got there one day late. The DNR wiped the area clean for the hatchery stock. Before that, I guess it was shoulder to shoulder fishing the banks. I would call down there - either to the DNR, or to a local bailt shop.

no not the spill way but the other side across the road with the huge rock bank
