    How are the water levels on P4 now? Are the wingdams now exposed??

    Also how is the current going now? If there is light wind, how is boat control? I know that in spring, I struggled with boat control.

    The third wingie down from LD3 is exposed. The second one has a few rocks poking up. The first is under the surface.

    There is very little flow. You can check current flow, stage, and temp data using the link below:

    Stage and flow are very low know…very similar to when you were here last winter with Brian K.The river always has it boat control issues,however,with the exception of wind,is about as good as it gets.The bottom wingdamn is completly out of the water and the upper wingies just under enough to ruin a prop or lower unit….proceed with caution! Good Luck!

    They are letting some water out today but ditto on Dean’s comments…It was one brutal experience today but we still put 10 in the boat on plastics…Report coming soon!

    How are we doing for water clarity? Seems like the last couple times out have seen a gradual clearing. Might be time to start throwing my favorite Pro Blue!

    Thanks,

    Thanks Dean! When the river is right I’ll always have that color rigged on at least one rod.
