Damn these big April storms. I’m gonna have to get a snowblower with some power.
I got just right at two feet of snow at my cabin this past week with drifts easily pushing four feet. People were stuck everywhere, and it’s going to be muddy and crappy when it melts around here – the tribs will go off for sure.
I drifted the dam to Craig yesterday afternoon; it was cold (30s) with a brisk north wind. Several decent fish on streamers deep and nymphing out of my boat. Saw some olives but no consistently rising fish.
That should change with 50 due today and 55 tomorrow; be ready for olives and I’d work subsurface stuff pretty hard. Yep, we’re still fishing pink over here.
The upcoming weather looks much better for fly fishing with clouds, showers and milder temps due. Not a super exciting report this week – have to call ‘em like I see ‘em.
Come on spring.
