Heat Advisory for the Wet Side

[Tom Butler]

Yeah, a good thing is the streamside brush in a couple of blueline ravines may not be encroaching the water making casting easier but I've already seen some erosion causing trees to fall over-into the streams like this that make up-downstream travel difficult. Oh well, provides cover for the homies.

That looks like a cool spot to beat the heat!

I don't mind the hot weather so much now with a heat pump installed last year, but my favorite drainages and especially small tailwaters are still running real high for this time of year.
As an example, I know the MF doesn't normally get to this level until sometime in July but sheesh!

I was up there a week ago and the water was 42*F at the Camp Brown area. It will come down and warm up, just a little later than we're used to lately. That's fine with me--it's good for the fish.

Just think of all the fish hiding under those fallen trees. And the fallen trees grabbing your flies and hooking them where you can't get to.
