Weekly Report For The Spring River

[Phil Lilley]

Water levels are running at 400 cfs and water clarity is poor. We received about 1.5 inches of rain on Monday night and it did make the Warm Fork of the Spring River mud up. The Warm Fork runs into the Spring River just below dam 1. It usually clears up quickly and the river should be fine by this weekend. We have had plenty of rain lately and the river is back up to normal levels. The river has been very low over the last several months and now that it is back up, I just want to remind everyone wading the Spring River to carry a wading staff and be careful out there. A fast current and slick rocks can make for a wet experience. Sunny days have been a little tuffer lately and on overcast days the trout seem to go on a feeding frenzy. Guppies, snails, and two tone woollies have been doing great. Hot pink and red trout magnets are working great also. With water levels at 400 cfs a little more
weight may need to be added and mend the fire out of it.....

Tightlines and good luck,

Mark Crawford
