Howdy Lee, I see your water levels are up . Here in the Dakota's the lakes are at 90 to 100 percent capacity . The streams are running higher then I have seen in over 20 years of living in the Black Hills of SD . We have had some very large bug hatches that I have never seen around here. The fish are fat and healthy because of it . Being this close to Aug and the Hills and meadows are still green . I find very unusual. Something I also find strange are the Browns are stacking up against the dams already . The Brook Trout are taking on fall colors . The squirrels are busy burying nuts as well . I hope that we don't get an early winter . Hope there isn't a big Oct storm in the making . I will take the rain and high water along with strong healthy fish for sure . I have a bad feeling I will be putting the snowblower to much use this year . Well anyway good to see you meeting up with old friends and doing what you like .Thumbs up
Thanks Bud
See Yah

Hi All
Short report. Fished the Upper Ellis and the Wildcat again. Did meet an old friend when we stopped at the wearhouse pool on the Ellis. It was Phil Dunphy from my days at UNH. Caught fish in both rivers, water was high because of the rain but they still fished OK. Caught both wild and stocked fish. My friend from Alabama did OK as well with a fly rod of his own.
Here are a few pictures for your pleasure.
