Water Rush

[Bill Babler]

The last two days we have had generatons rates simply blowing it out.. Made a pass on the dam today and saw no waders fishing the outlets and I have never seen that. Drift fishing is very good, if you are in a boat.

Don't really know why they are running the water at these levels, as TR is only at 917, they are dumping it as if it is at 920. Big egg pattersn and big scuds are the bomb. I am drifting size 12 eggs and size 10 and 12 scuds in grey and doing very well in the restricted area.

I am running tandems with an egg and a scud at about 10inches below the egg and we are catching about 60 fish in a 8 hr. trip. Lots of 16 and 17 inch fish.

Only 1 Brown the last two days.

Out of the R. area, Made 1 drift from Fall Creek to Lilleys' and had 14 on crawlers.

Fish are biting regurardless of flow, come on down.

I saw quite a few being caught below Cooper down to the bridge drifting Gulp Eggs. The current seems to be alot slower below Cooper.
