With yesterday's freakish snow storm and run off happening soon does anybody know what the water clarity will be today?

i really envy you guys fishing the bow. here on the nsr you can see your flourescent orange jig when it's about 2" from the surface (if you squint a little).

About 2 inches of visibility before the 22x yesterday. Still managed a few though.

Water is good with 2-3 feet of visibility under the water near city center. Nose hill creek entering by the zoo was adding a lot of mud-brown water into the river, but was mixing in with the rest of the water after about 1/3 of a mile downstream.

On a side note, Red Deer River was a touch on the clouded side when the ice melted a couple weeks ago, but has since cleared up to as good as can be expected for this time of year. About 1.5 ft of visibility under the water there.
