I actually went and looked at the river today. Visibility is very poor. The clay is going to be a major issue this year. I’m guessing it’s coming from Borden so the whole river is likely out.

Video update of current conditions I took this morning:
These guys aren’t lying on here, the water is CHAULKY! Starting to turn green up top, tho for sure- but vis is 18 inches at best at the slab and deteriorates quickly as you head downstream. Lots of side channels flowing strong still mid river and main section super chaulky. Definitely a few new runs carved out to explore.Please note the last two clips are of the Tesky Homeless Camp teardown and the helicopter as it begins to take away the garbage. I  heard there were over 1000 needles picked up by volunteers down there >:( >:( >:(  ENJOY THE VID!

the afternoon sun caused more clay to fall in I guess. Hopefully the slides stabilize or else it will be a very unproductive year of angling
