By the end of the day the river started coming up and colouring up a bit, but nothing substantial.
As long as the rain stays away, it should be good to go tomorrow.

Was a great day on the river...a steelhead virgin cherry was popped today, BTW...hopefully he'll post about it. ;D

River should be great this morning.  Looks like it may be overcast out... which is good.  Didn't get a sniff yesterday afternoon till the shade hit the water.   :)

Maybe, but the freezing level has been pretty low so might not be too bad.
