As of Sunday water temps were running 55*-59*, river to back bays and sloughs. Water level is at normal range and we have good current.

Dad and I will be fishing it as usual. As Todd said, water is up to normal, finally. After an extended drawdown, we got some needed rain last week, that brought the water up. Flow is receding and is in the 3,000-4,000 cfm range down from about 15,000 at its peak a week or so ago. I had 58.2 in the main channel yesterday, which is about what the temps were a week later than this time last year. Hopefully we maintain the slow warming trend.
Got Esox?
