Went down to KWB today - lost a small Colorado to a snag.

No bites/nibbles and water is green. Good luck and let's keep trying!

River was colouring up as we left at 4pm, there was a heavy rain up top when we left at 1pm. We talked to others that saw clay bank starting to give way up top.

Went out today...
Water vis was great above Allison (was around 4 feet visi and nice green colour). Spent about 2 hours there with nothing....
Moved down to tamahi, around 2 feet vis on arrival. Rain started HEAVY, coloured up fast and we tried beating it down to On the way.
Vis probs dropped to about 6 inches down in the lower.... talked to a couple guys that were going into Thurston on our way out, slides are puking big time now.

No fish to report of.. not even a hit (Yesterday was a quick one hour trip for first one of the year and hit a hatch coho).
One fish weighed in at OTW yesterday... If you get a chance stop in for some sooup at OTW, it's great  ;D

Fished a few runs above the crossing - saw a chap with a nice looking doe, then fished up and down from Peach Rd. Water was pretty colored. Had a nice walk but no joy! I'll keep trying!

Fished up and down from the crossing as well as the river cam. About 1 foot vis up by the slessy trailer park. Checked Lickman and it looked pretty nice. Got the game plan together for boxing day ;)

River did not too good when I checked it around 11 but it has become colder this afternoon with the snow level creeping down the mountain slopes.

Good news for Santa and his sleight too. ;D ;D

Fished most of the day yesterday.  Water was still a bit chalky, but it was a nice day.  Got checked by a CO in the morning.
