Avalon john, are the fish just in the pool  and stream running from the waterfall or do you have to fish the main river down there?

I fish the main river, but in the spring, when the river is high, I do very well at the base of the waterfall when the water is just below the rock platform at the base of the waterfall.

I usually walk down to the right of the waterfall if you are facing the main river.  If you walk down a bit you'll see some rock protruding from the main river.  I fished this part of the main river 90% when I did fish Scotts Run.  I have not fished Scotts Run in a few years since and not sure what erosion and water levels are like.  

Few years back where I described there was a gravel sand bar where you could wade where the water would only come about to your knees and make cast near the boulders on the deeper part of the river.  Would always catch a few nice ones everytime I went to Scotts Run for 10+ years.  Not sure what its like these days but I would assume the area is still very productive.  Out of old times sakes a friend of mine who fished with me there regularly we've decided to check it out this weekend.  I'll update you guys after this weekend if I can make it out there.
