"Flood to fast and by summers end will be dryer then a popcorn fart , Heres to hoping for lots of rain in the next few weeks"
Make that in the next few months, rain on top of deep snow in the foothills would not be good. Makes it melt much quicker.
The good/bad news for this spring is the mountains have below average snow pack (last time i checked the gov site), may be low flows later in the summer but should reduce the severity of spring flooding. My favorite fishing spot has been completely washed out two years in a row now, like learning a new river each summer. I wouldn't mind a less severe flood one of these times.
I talked to a buddy down south this evening, one of my favorite little trout lakes is ready to fish this weekend, can't wait to get the fly rod out for the second time this spring
Ice out is by far my favorite time of year to target big rainbows.
