Don't waste your time IMO. I went Friday after work to a slow 80 flow just to try. Saw not a fish roll (I was down low) and the water was super slow. Some buddies landed a few over the weekend but they are smaller PA mutts. The ground needs to get saturated. In other words we need more rain and cold before the manistees show up in any, what I call; fishable numbers. I doubt I'll go there until November.

I always want to jump the gun early. I did catch one last week on the rocky but even that river doesn't have many. I'm going to MI on my next hunt for chrome.

In other words; if you have limited days to take off dont waste your time :)



Yeah thats kinda what i figured. Its getting that time of year when i gotta start looking at the limited remaining time off work i have left and planning to get the most use out of it possible. Have to reserve a day or two for ice as well in case we get fishable ice this year. Supposed to get an extra week vacation this coming year starting in february so that will help.

Hmm. East is better early in the season.....


Yeah I know. The V is really the only one I know I can travel to and even its a little far right now. If I thought I had a decent chance I may be able to take a day off and take a trip so I guess its just wishful thinking and I should save what time off I have left for later , but curious to know if there were any catches there especially after the recent rains.
