Terry Dodge Posted July 10, 2017 Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 Anybody up for some more rain? I think we could sure use it. It seems like we are starting to push that "40 days and 40 nights" thing. Maybe this will help.... Sorry. Video bad. Removed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Gillio Posted July 10, 2017 Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 That dance can always make me smile Terry, but can it slow the rains? If it does I'd pattent it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben K. Posted July 11, 2017 Report Share Posted July 11, 2017 Play it backwards? My year has felt more like groundhogs day, plan a trip at optimum river levels for it to be blown out with rain the night before. I have some horror stories.

Joe R Posted July 12, 2017 Report Share Posted July 12, 2017 Desperation LOL, whatever it takes. I hit the south branch Sunday started off downriver didn't like the looks (too stained) so headed up river where there was adequate visibility. Not a good smallie section but caught several and a couple pike. Actually where I was water was low and too slow. I'm not planning anything in advance its always the night before deciding what river and if I'm fishing things are too unpredictable this year.

Norm M Posted July 12, 2017 Report Share Posted July 12, 2017 From what they told us at the K3 watershed conference the pattern of more rain and severe high water events is only going to get worse as time goes on . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob G Posted July 12, 2017 Report Share Posted July 12, 2017 I have about a half dozen rivers with different watersheds down this way and yet I've had a tough time finding one with low enough and clear enough water to wade, and as I type this, we're getting hit again, on a day when there was almost no chance of rain. Very frustrating because these aren't mild rains where things are back in line in a day or two but rather these are taking 4-5 days to come back down and then we get hit again. Back to the local lakes and ponds in search of greenies. Btw, nice clip Terry, didn't realize you were Irish. (River Dancers) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norm M Posted July 13, 2017 Report Share Posted July 13, 2017 Terry I rechecked my notes , it's now until 2090 . They said as time went on it would only increase with the frequency and severity of the rainfall and high water events . There was science behind their figures that I did not fully understand . None of the other scientists, biologist , etc took exception to their predictions . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Dodge Posted July 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2017 From what I have seen recently, they can't get tomorrow right let alone 30+ years from now. Watched the noon weather today and they said that we would have a heat index of 105+ degrees by 7pm tonight. It never happened. It must really suck for a weather person to go into work and punch in, study and look at radars, satellites, dual-dobbler-radars and other such things, only to find out that you have no idea what the weather is going to be when you punch out after your 8 hour shift. Fake weather! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
