Great day on the river, conditions were nice with about 3 feet of visibility where I was fishing, check out fishing reports for a more detailed story(hopefully I'll get it posted later tonight). It was a good day ;D

I was out  ;D
Vis was 4 feet on arrival up top, got up to about 5 feet vis and then dropped to around 3 when I was leaving.
Mid river was around 2 feet vis as well.

We had snow in the low levels of the Valley this morning but I have not checked it yet. What time are you planning on leaving as I was going to check it after coffee?

Condition good when I looked 5 minutes ago, beautiful day in the Valley, for a change. I only saw 2 anglers within view, when I looked up and down river from the Lickman parking lot.

conditions were not bad in the lower today, saw a few anglers one of which landed a 8-9 pound wild on his second cast. No other fish that I say though

was out on the 1-3rd. took a few hours each day to clean up the visability enough so i could actually see my feet.
got into 2 on wed, taking home a 9lb hatch doe. thursday i bonked a 14lb doe. friday not so lucky, only shook hands with one momentarily.
should pick up now that the weather is getting warmer.

Conditions were OK this am and I thought it was  better in the Canal area. Of course with the warmer weather the snow melt will soon begin and things could deteriorate at any time.
