I ventured down to lower pool 2 yesterday afternoon for a short trip. (South of 494) My last trip was nearly 2 weeks ago and the river was a mess. I figured the water would be dropping and starting to clear up. WRONG! What a mess. The water level was up almost 2 feet. Chocolate milk, maybe 2 inches of visibility. The flow was fast and there were trees, branches, deadheads and garbage everywhere. Hard to even get the boat up on plane without clunking into something. Needless to say I only stayed on the water for about an hour. No fish…..
Need to come up with a plan B for the weekend. Maybe some ice out Crappies in a nearby lake???
