How's The Water Level?

[Zack Hoyt]

I have been meaning to get up on the Elk for a while now and may have an opening in my weekend. Is there any section that is floatable? I plan on fishing, but am really just wanting to get out on the water. Doesnt have to be a long float at all......I usually dont rush my trips. Anyone is welcome to join also.....its nice to have someone with first hand knowledge of the water.

Me and a buddy floated from Riverside to Mt. Shira on Mon. It was a good float with very little dragging.

We caught a bunch of smallies and some goggle eye, biggest was probably 1 1/12lb to 2lb

It was late afternoon we used a plastic worm before it got dark and top water after it got dark.

It's only supposed to be in the mid 60's this weekend, so bring some warm clothes just in case.

Have a good float.

Forgive the ignorance......where abouts is Riverside? I am very unfamiliar with the putins and take outs.

Riverside is about 2 miles down the road from Hog Heaven on the right side of the road.

There will be some small cabins on the left.

We put in behind the gas station in Pineville and tok out at the low water bridge near the train tracks. What a great trip. Can't wait to do some more of this river.
