Stream fishing
A couple days of heavy rain last week followed (finally) by some warm weather have increased the runoff. Stream flows on many area streams have actually increased over the last week or two.
My advice to stream anglers: consider fishing some of our many fine local lakes for the next couple weeks.
If you are determined to fish a stream make sure to present your offering deep. Current conditions are not conducive to surface feeding.
Flows are higher and the water is colder than it usually is this time of year. Use extreme caution when wading.
