I can't wait to see how these flows have shaped our river and re-learn the drifts...

Thank god! It's about time! Hopefully there's still some fish left in the river for us. At least those high flows pushed all the rotting and dying salmon carcasses out so we wont have to deal with the stench this year.

Young grasshopper ,the stench is not near what it used to be! I'm sure that sea lion went back to the bay though!

I don't know about that Mark.... I saw him swimming around in the flooded Arden pond last week!

Wait... you mean the sea lion... or Gary??? Sounds like some pretty serious steelhead withdrawal to me!

Remember, that stitch is the smell of new life for the river.

Jason,

Mark's idea of skinny dipping with a steelhead fly in the mouth sounded faaaar too appealing as a method of coping with these withdrawls for swinging. I couldn't resist!
