Default Blackstone

I posted in the wrong sub forum sorru. Hoping someone can help me out.

With the rain we've had, and the rain forecasted in the area is the Blackstone likely to be blown out and unfishable on Sunday and Monday?

Some friends and I were planning a Trip for two days. I have read people.have had luck during the rain but thought I'd ask.

This is how I make a lot of my trip decisions.

It's a pretty awesome tool in my opinion. It's not fool proof but it gives you a decent idea how much water the rivers are pushing. Hope this helps.

Ditto on AVA's suggestion with the website. If you keep a log of some sort with your fishing trips, you can make note on what the flow and levels were when you fished it. Then, when you see similar numbers, that might mean something to you like "kinda like last time I fished it" or "even better than last time" or whatever.

Cheers.

I just asked someone who works out that way and drives over the river everyday. He said it was clear for a little bit yesterday but it got dirty again with all the rain. Let me know how it is if you decide to go.
