AS I look out the window the lights across the street are dim because of the rain, Its pouring. Its been raining off and on for the last 36 hrs. Had two tornados in the last 3 hrs. touch down within 20 miles of me, whats it doing in your neck of the woods.
Waiting for your rain to get here. My grass is calling! 
On and off periods of hard rain since late last night. It has stopped for brief periods but for the most part it has been a steady deal here in MPLS.
How is the river level?
_ss is calling?, oh sorry Chris grass is calling. I mean its raining like holy heck and then some. I got my cooler fixed up for some chubs this afternoon but with these pickins I think im going after some crawlers tonight if it quits here in the next hour or so. Right now the big spring crawlers are out and thier everywhere. Chubs or spring crawlers,,,whats a guy to do 
The river came up atmost a few inches but the creeks are up around 6″ to 10″. Its been a long slow rain the kind the farmers like that soaks in and dosen’t run off. It clouded the creek that I fish for chubs in and didn’t get a bite, eigther that or the catfish have moved in and the chubs are in real shallow water. Have to see in a few days after it clears up. You guys ought to see the spots on the chubs right now, thier gourgeous, and with the red spot right behind thier eyes, its the most. The black spotting and speckeling are set back into thier pigment but still are very distinct, you’d have to see them, thier a real pretty fish right now and a mouth the size of a largemouth, chubs are a pretty neat fish.
been pouring rain for the last two days, morels been popping(yellows) and grays. fishing was great for slabs at badger creek friday, had a short time then had to go to charles city for daughters wedding shower(fish with the new son-in-law. came back (fished this morning)-nothing but still mushrooms.

Just dumped 5 inches out of the rain gauge. That is since Friday night. Got 3 inches since I got up this AM. 
Any size to the mushrooms Hockey?
The forcast friday was 4″ too 8″. I hope its the later for us downstream.
Deluge here (Waterloo) for several, several hours now. Don’t know how much we have had but it has to be 4-8 inches? 10 in areas possibly? Rivers SE of us are going to be real trouble. Watch out Cedar Rapids (Cedar River) and Wapsi River drainage. Coming your way.
AS much rain as we got last spring when it flooded Bigdog?, I hope not. We got around 10″ in 24 hrs when it did last spring.
My fish’n buddy had to call me today ( in the middle of sleeping…working nights ) he found 2 lbs of small grays today, but a lot of walking !
no they were all very small 1-3inches at the most, for some reason this spot does not produce any large ones-yellow or greys, I’v got others spots that they have not even came up yet.(lack of sun) but they’ll be there. I’ll try to post a pic. this was the only way i could show you, there under my sign. to the left.
I sure wish it would come down here in NE. I would love to go out and pick up another hundred crawlers!
