    Lot of good rainbows coming in. They're mostly in the slop 16-17" fish. We've had 8 or 10 in the last week that have been 20-22".

    I've seen the 15lb rainbow I reported on, 9 3/4lb brown. Just a lot of good trout.

    River is holding between 53-55 degrees. Normal rise and normal fall. Still some good striper coming in. Johnny Rush had some people out Friday and they had 3 over 30lb. One was 40+ pounds.

    The river is back to normal. I know I keep sayin this but it's just probably better than it was 10-12 years ago and it looks like it's only gonna get better!

    The sterile rainbows they put in, a lot of those are being caught. Good healthy fat fish.

    The river right now, we got a good 2" rain the other night...it muddied it up for about 24 hours but it's back to a real good green color. Up in the mornings about 6am about knee deep over the bars and by afternoon the bars are showing. Water quality is perfect, don't get any better!

    Finally getting back to where we were after 5 years of terrible fishing. Now we're doing really good. Good healthy fat fish!

    If any big fish come in, I'll let ya know!
