Arranged my fishing trip for this weekend and spent a couple of weeks preparing for it. It's a difficult venue at the best of times as Big G can verify.
Been keeping an eye on the forecast with metcheck and although the weather will be at its worst the fishing conditions will be at their best. I still expect to blank but am looking forward to the experience. Obviously if things get too bad no fish is worth risking lives for. Good luck to anyone venturing out and above all be safe not stupid

Yay for rain. I've been dying to get some serious brownie fishing done and it's been held back by low levels.

er,
I think that is going to be the wrong kind of rain. What rivers need is a good soacking from steady rain so that it sinks into the ground and gently percolates into the streams and rivers, bringing up the levels gently. With this, what you are likely to get is a huge amount of rain being dumped in a very short time, running straight off the land and into the watercourses where it will crash along in a torrent, tearing everything in its path out of the way, moving snags and greavel beds etc all over the place, collapsing banks in some paces. Then when the torrent has swept through, the watercourses will rapidly revert to their previous levels as though there had been no rain. All of this is likely to be accompanied by plentiful thunder and lightning (and heavy hail showers). No time to be fishing with a carbon fishing rod. Keep it SAFE! (of course many areas will see no rain at all, just hear the sound of distant thunder and watch the effects on the news) TL - leon -------------------- |

Leon - you forgot to add that the flash flooding will likely wash out all this years fry as well.
