I only picked up a quarter pounder last time I was fishing at Watt. I didn't see anything decent role.

We ran three trips this weekend. Hooked about 15 fish and landed around half of them. they were nice bright fish in the 2-3 lb range. Also lost a 7-10lb chromer at the boat.

When out last Thursday after work around Goethe and didn't get a bump. Got out for a couple of hours Sunday afternoon further down river and only got one grab. If they're in the river, they don't seem to be holding in one area too long. Jeff C.

Fished the Hall Park area last Thurs. and ended up with a smolt and a few other smacks that felt kinda smoltish :shock:. Was encouraged by seeing 3 or 4 fish roll that actually looked like 1/2#ers taking something off the surface. I saw 2 caddis and a few BWO's. Maybe this bump up in river flow will bring them in. 2500cfs is where I used to like the flow. Fishing new spots this year so we'll have to see what it does for the wading.

Mike N. don't you go out there and start catching fish without me now!

MSP,

I figured you had already been there and scared away all the fish.

I'll let you know if I start to find any in the evenings.
