    Was down below the lower dam here in town about 2 hrs ago and the waters up about 10″ to 12″ from what it was a couple weeks ago. I didn’t know the water was up and thought it was still at winter level. The water is halfway clear with human visability around 12″ to 15″ or a little more maybe, fish can always see farther. The water looked good, haven’t been to the wapsi but i will soon, its probably clearer. Is all this water coming from southern minnesota, most of it probably is.

    I haven’t been on the river, but I check daily, (high water ruins my life when the bite’s been good) Give it another 3 days in our area WW, the clarity isn’t what I’d like to see, but the level should be appropriate pretty soon. I like to watch the areas that I know should be really low flow this time of year, once you can tell that the flow’s gone down in them it’s time to be fishin’ again. A good place to watch in your specific neck of the woods is the pockets downstream of the bridge on 1st!
