Mother Nature seems to be fickle; espscially if your a weekend fisher on the Rocky. Thursday, 4/3, conditions on the Rocky reached great. Then M.N. woke up and thought, 'Opps, weekend is coming...time to make it rain.' But there is a silver lining to this cloud, the warm and sunny days we've had this week has thawed out the ground and there is substatially less runoff; or at least the runoff isn't laden with silt.

Though, there are a number of areas where the river looks like a bottle of Yoohoo there are streches that haven't been too affected by the recent night long rains. Yes, the river and flow is up http://waterdata.usgs.gov/oh/nwis/uv?04201500 but should (my opn) settle in time to fish this weekend, or at least by Saturday afternoon. Plus, and this is a biggie...the Weather Gurus are saying we should expect a sunny and warm weekend with highs hitting 60 on Sunday! If you are willing to forage away from your normal areas you can find spots that are not perfectly ideal but fishable til then.

Get the gear ready guys and gals looks like we're going fishing this weekend.
Fish on,
Jim
