Way Up The War Eagle 3/13

[bferg]

My bro put in at Sidewalk and ran way up the War Eagle past the island last night. Said the water was chocolate milk once he got past the first bend up the river from the ramp. Fly fishing for whites and throwing clousers and sculpin helmets. Caught a few small males. The dirty water makes it tough with flies...

We are hoping that it clears out by Saturday...hopefully no more major rain events this week.

Anyone else been up the rivers lately? Anyone been fishing for whites below the dam on the tailwater? Trying to decide my plan for the weekend....

I spent maybe half an hour up at the Mill last night. It was really up and rolling. Just about knock you over to get knee deep, and that wouldn't get you very far. It was high, fast, and dirty. I flipped a clouser a few times to say I'd been fishing and then went home. Gonna keep an eye on the level and try it again later.
