Has anybody seen how the Mcleod near Robb or Edson is running or the streams in the Rocky area like the clearwater? What about Abraham Lake? Somebody told me even it is all merked up? Thanks for any feedback.

Haven't been out there since last Sunday but it looked like a few weeks away from fishable. Abraham looked like the rest of the NSR near Edmonton......muddy and milky. I won,t head back there until mid July'ish for river fishing.

Stuff like Shunda and Chambers on 11 between Rocky and Nordegg are low enough elevation and spring bed, they might be worth a shot.

We went by everything from the Banff Park boundary to Rocky and all are high and muddy including Chambers etc.. There are some "dry washes" that I have never saw run before going pretty hard. Looks like it will be a while. Maybe some of the trout lakes like Goldeye, Fish, Landslide etc. are ok.

I was through Robb and Coal valley last night.. The River and the stream are all high and dirty like Chocolate milk. You can fish the lovett..
All roads are muddy and rough including highway 40 through coal valley

was there about 4 hours ago. everything that flows is buggered. and not just a little bit either.they were blown out when i got there and after 10 days of rain they are even worse. hiway 40 looks like a russian hiway. plan on going 40-60 kmh all the way. and its down to one narrow muddy lane by the mine too. fairfax lake is kind of murky although you can see some huge suckers hiding under the floating dock.
