Tangled Bill

What live cam?

Jeepers, 5' higher this time. Thanks, rwolfe. (How'd you find that? I've been Googlin'...)

Wow! Compare that top shot of the pavilion with Leonard's pavilion shot from yesterday. Were Terry's pics taken at the height of the flooding?

Thanks, Leonard, but I meant Taneycomo, not TR.

What was Taneycomo's crest in the 2008 mess? I wasn't here then.

Pretty crazy. Yes, that's an understatement-- And houses across from Fall Creek--

I'm in the Fall Creek condos. Evacuations were 'suggested' this morning in all of the condos along the water. Just (2 minutes ago) got an automated Code-Red phone call that the Corps is increasing the spill-rate and a 3' rise is expected. That would put it at 26' since Friday.

Here's some ideas, Phil-- http://www.thriftyfun.com/tf947057.tip.html As a fellow prescription sunglasses wearer I understand your pain.

Great post, Phil. Especially this-- Ain't that the truth! P.S. Beauty brown.

Hope you went, Ringer. Water off, definitely wadeable and the trout they are a'bitin'.

Right now the generation schedule looks pretty decent... not that you can rely on that. But bottomline - to me anyhows - is to enjoy yourself regardless of how much water is running. You're outside, you're fishing, you're scoffing at the 'fishermen' that stand directly in the outlets throwing 6' of line... Have fun, dude.

Thanks, Phil.

How do you access that from land?

Hmmm..... what if you couldn't imagine a good christian man? Just wonderin'... Have fun, Carter.

The main reason I like the beadheads so much is that I don't have to put a splitshot on... I always end up with a tangle with a splitshot. So there's another grain of salt to take into account.

No problem, Jeff.

As a flyfishing virgin feel free to take this with a grain (maybe a full shake) of salt but I have become a huge fan of beadhead zebra midges. Blacks, reds and tans. On sunny days I've even caught on ice dubbing midges. Wading between Outlet 1 and the cable. Have fun, dude.

@ 1:57 they're running 4 gennies and the level is 710.4. Yep, I guess they got the 4th one back online.

That perfectly describes the 16" stud 'bow I got yesterday just downriver from the cable. 10+ minutes to get him to the net (partly because of my flyfishing newbieness, I would think.) Every time I got him to within about 10' of me he'd decide that he wasn't playing and - ZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzz - off he'd go. It was getting to the point that I started worrying about tiring the fish out way too much. Finally got him in the net and safely released. He was a good 2" across the shoulders and the colors?... out of this world. Compared to a colorless 18"-er I caught a couple of weeks ago that came to the net like a 19 year old blind chihuahua on a leash.

Gotta use the <Insert Image> button, Brian.

Zen-Walking. Dig it, Norm.

Is that the 866.494.1993 number?

Cool to get the story behind the fly. Thanks, Luke; I never would have figured out to palmer the hackle the way he does it.

Same generation schedule according to the SPA projection.

Sweet, thanks! I might even be able to figure out how to tie that fly, noob that I am. Cool forum link too - I wasn't aware of that one. ~ Bill
