river really high this morning and about 6 inches of visibility, time to tie leaders and pray for cold weather, should be stellar fishing when she drops and clears

Went for a walk today along the river and the river has dropped some but still very high. Visibility approaching a foot but the rain continues to fall with some wind.

Found a nice Drennan, a number of DNE's, Clear Drifts and some run of the mill floats

Gee Chris, it seems that your finding way more floats then you can get rid of. I guess your grand kids will have enough floats. In fact I bet that even their kids will have enough as well.   ;D ;D

So early in the season for a fish that size, usually the derby winner is caught around mid February.
