9.29′ in Red Wing right now. Cresting but not dropping until Monday at 9.50′.
River is high and rising. Watch from those trees (more so the ones just underwater).
Although that cold, rain and wind of last weekend slowed the fishermen down, there were some that were out. All day Saturday and Sunday morning I watch a couple fishing across the river from me and when the light drizzle turned into a pouring rain, I thought they would be long gone. Nope! Hard core guys there!
I’m heading out to Lake Pepin someplace around the Rush River to drop the anchor and spend the night. If you happen to swing by, toot your horn!
Hopefully Saturday evening I’ll be having some kind of fish on the grill…if not, Hamm’sburgers it will be!
