jonny5 Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Up about a foot from yesterday, but I imagine this is going to be the start of it. Water colour is a bit muddy with about a foot of vis at the crowchild bridge.. Time to get those streamer rods out soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRH Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Up about a foot from yesterday, but I imagine this is going to be the start of it. Floated the city today and although you may be right about the river being about to blow out, visibility throughout the city was 6 to 7 feet until the monsoon hit. Level is up a bit from the last three days but only marginally. My guess is that once today's rain storm flushes through, we'll still have a few days of fishing before blow out. When it does come, I won't be surprised to see it extend into July. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny5 Posted June 17, 2009 Author Share Posted June 17, 2009 Seems like it was a false alarm. Water is back to its normal blueish colour. Get those 4wts back out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tungsten Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 More than half of the snow pack has melted,cold nights and below average temps have kept it cleaner then other years.Still flowing high into Bearspaw 280m3 ish.My guess is 10 more days and there will be no more snow pack left.
