We actually got a break in the high water, but it was because of downstream flooding due to the monsoon that has been the month of March. I got in a day of fishing for my own sanity and three guide trips for my bank account. Sunday we got another inch and a half of rain, plus more last night so maybe this coming weekend will be the same way, but who knows at this point.

I saw some nice fish over these four days and had a good time with folks in the boat. Saturday was the best day by far. I had a gentleman who has been aboard my boat a few times and he brought his daughter in law with him who had never flyfished. Beginners luck doesn't begin to describe it. She caught around 70 trout and one was a 21" brown. It was just one of those days and it's almost a tease because of all the impending high water.

The lower pic was one that I caught on Thursday on a heavy sink tip and streamer rig.

Hopefully the water realeases will give us another great opportunity like this one sometime soon. There is a chance that relaeases will have to be cut back for many different reasons and it's possible that the lake wont get down to pool level until sometime near the end of Summer if this happens. Currently the lake is around 15 feet high and stil rising... we might have to build an ark soon and load it up with all the animals if the weather in April is as wet as May has been. Does anyone know an anti-rain dance?
