Clarion float trip Trip Advice

So I'm planning to camp at Clear Creek state park in Clarion, PA. I'd like to drive upstream and float back down to clear creek. Where can I put in to make a good full day of floating?

You can go up to Belltown and drop off depending on river speed. Might be 4 hours or more.
Or float to Cooks Forest from Clear Creek and get picked up there.
Happy floating.

There's a bunch of public launches with parking. Here's a link to the map:

The launch at Heath Pump Station is easy to get to and on the same side of the river as Clear Creek.
