It's at 14209 in gold bar right now, gunna be iffy. Might be a good day to stay home. But as it has been said when the rivers high, fish high. So find quiet water and they will be on the inside of the current seam. I have done well in high water in the past twitching white jigs. Good luck, I will be home watching the seahawks.

Generally speaking, the upper Sky is fishable to about 10,000cfs.

I know you didn't show your wife that Vid, LOL!!
Crazy!
I walked into Monte Cristo today. Up on the Sauk river, Mountain loop Hwy, etc. Man... those rivers are crazy high right now. The road in had been washed out. The river had taken over the road, i.e. flowing down the road. Took a bunch of pics. with the new camera. Mushroom hunted, and called it a day. [woot] [woot]

Care to share some of the picture you took? Flooding rivers always make for cool pictures!
