Got Wood?

[DTro]

Hit the river last night and it is darn near the lowest I've seen. Had to activate the "Eagle Eye" and slow down to a crawl to navigate some the stretches.

Not only that, but just about every spot I stopped to fish I lost a rig or two in the wood

I think I know that tree.

I agree harvey I remember those trees. That is where that half naked chic went running down the sand after that dog.

[nitefisher]

was it bo derik, or were you guys licking catfish? i have to find these trees.

[AQUAJOE]

She was no Bo Derik but she was running.

[harvey lee]

so true,so true.Thats the better part of being on the river.the scenery.

Let it drop! The water levels and her clothes!

These water levels aren't actually that low. THe past few years we have had some high water throughout the summers.

Check out the water level history on the USGS site. A Jordan gauge height of 4 to 5 wasn't unheard of. Thats a foot to two feet lower than it is now, and its why this catman has been running jets on the MN!

[AQUAJOE]

So when the water gets this low where do the cats go? Do they just get stuck in the deep holes until the water comes back up. Or do they usually move to where there is more water?

Maybe she got 'hung up' and had to take evasive action...

EDIT: OK OK, axe this post now since it sooo much more offensive than what I quoted. And for the record, this really was hanging, and prolly still is, from a branch while scouting downstream of Franklin a while back. The things a guy finds if he is observant...
