A Little Muddy.....

[DOUGSDEN]

Dear Forum Friends,
I was relating to our pal Bill (tie2fish) about how muddy our local waters are....except our small ponds. They vary from just a little off color to completely muddy. Our streams and rivers are bank to bank, blown out, and rank as can be. My wife commented this morning that she can't remember a spring like this one. The ground is totally saturated and the forcast is for rain practically every day for the next seven.
Is anyone else having water troubles of this magnitude? I kinda miss the clear waters and the challenge of tiny tippets and wee flies!
Happy Easter everyone!

DD,

Even though we've had three very nice days, our rivers are still blown out. Just when it looks like they'll clear and drop, we get more rain or the snow pack starts to melt off and muddies them up again. Our ski areas are looking to stay open til mid June, so we may have high and off color water for some time.

Our streams are almost at flood stage today. Looks like more rain on the way.

We're fortunate here in that the Gunpowder Falls is a tailwater that clears up quickly in the C&R section.

Been rainin' here a LOT lately........last night the tornado sirens were goin' off like KArazy......but no tornado close to us as far as i know. Domoarigato Kamisama.

Lots of rain here aswell. Most of the Freestones are blown out. The tailwaters are in very good shape.

Happy Easter ALL and Howdy ;

Woke-up and put the pooch out into.....





and



Had the same yesterday, maybe some more tomorrow.

The mood allthrought the State is pins-n-needles about flooding..... had some up near ogden earlier this week along the Weber.
Folks don't even want to hear the word.... makes folks shudder.

The plus side to the snow is it easirer to track Easter Bunny's.......

hank, we stayed in Ogden a couple times this year.....nice stream round there. Pretty country too. Rainin' like KArazy here right now. Thunder and lightning.........our pond is as full as i've ever seen it. It has an inlet and an outlet.....the outlet is overflowing.
