Justin, she isn't PMSing, that's just the way she rolls. That's why it is "mother" nature. Unpredictable, contrary, never satisfied.

In contrast, "father" time is consistent, steady, never changing.

Eventually, mother nature will get tired of looking at father times face and there'll be a nasty divorce. It'll be interesting to see how fairly "the judge" rules on that one.

I've watched Crane's ups and downs for years. I don't like the downs at all, they make me nervous. But the trout do make comebacks with the water. The upper section is the volatile and dangerous area for the trout. Two losing holes (that I know of) and dry conditions can trap and doom them quickly. The lower area is the safe haven and likely provides stock for the upper in good times. A good spawn can provide several hundred thousand fry to replenish the creek. I just wish MDC would take the 18" keep allowance off the stream and take it back to catch and release only. Those 18+ fish are the prime breeding stock. I can remember when there were a fair number of 6-8 pound fish in the creek and I haven't seen one over 4 or 5 for many years now. Course, I don't get down there as much as I used to.
