    Flows may not get much below 5K for awhile, which is fine by me for shad season.

    No fish in an hour Saturday afternoon, but did find a nice level 1/2 buried in the gravel, couldn't budge it though. Waiting for the next King Arthur (Contractor Arthur I guess)?

    fished with shorts under waders and not too cold, I did not realize how cold the water was until I submerged my arm to retrieve a fly that got snagged up on the willows underwater near the shore. The water was quite cold. No grads for three hours of fishing. Good seeing you as well Jeff. going to hit the river sunday and try again.

    To answer the original question,I watched a cormorant catch what looked to be 3 lampreys in about ten minutes at Effie Yeaw today. The river there is unrecognizable - completely changed, for better and worse.
