watch out for the snags they are nasty  I always carry a small strong stick to wrap my line around to pull out the snags.  I loosen my drag a bit to relieve pressure on it, and my spool, and get enough slack to wrap the line around five or so times, and with my rod straight, I back up and give it a good pull to break free.  If you do this fast before the current peels off a bunch of your line you can usually retrieve part if not all of your rig.  I just thought I would mention it because I see alot of guys trying to unsnag themselves by yanking up on their rods (which can crack your rod by the guides), or putting their thumb on their spools (which in a strong current with heavy test line puts too much pressure on your spool which could possibly bend it ), or they wrap the line around their arm which could possibly cut your skin especially when using braided line.

Another name for this bar is= " The Snaggy Bar"...

I have heard there are lots of snags at pipe line ,I guess thats why it's called snaggy bar.

Hey! what are you implying?  The 8 foot leaders give the corkies a natural presentation. 

[Sterling C]

It's actually quite snag free if you fish in close.....

[oddjob]

do you have to cast out a fair distance or is there a drop off . how is the current there  ?

[Sterling C]

It drops off pretty fast

pipeline bar was barely fishable today. can be very snaggy if one is not familiar with the drift. not like scale bar where there is virtually no snags. the bar is not a place for tonnes of guys either, it's small and has very limited fish chasing area downstream. If i pull up and see 6 or more cars i move on. Also this bar blows for sox but can be productive for springs.
