It was weird...the banks are cleaned out and roots are exposed. Where there were gradual drop offs there are now deep holes straight off the banks. The water was green instead of that beautiful clear blue. And the water wasn't very cold. With one generator all our gravel bars were under water where they used to be exposed with just one running. One of my favorite holes was now just part of a channel instead of the backside of a channel until it reached the bank. We might have to learn some of the river all over again which is exciting and frustrating all at the same time.

More rain is coming...so it's not going to let up any time soon.

The one thing I didn't say was I caught a little brown and pulled him to the edge of the boat to release him. Grabbed him to unhook and his body was rippling from head to tail. It was like he was having muscle spasms or something. You could see his flesh moving like a bunch of little waves down his body...really odd.
