Maybe, just maybe better now than next week? Some may delay their process, but most have started it.

Seems like it happens every year ...

I think the timing is bad regardless. The fish don't all spawn at once so yes, some will be fine. But now the prediction is for a higher number getting there fast. Aargh!

Yep...we need a break.

drxfish · May-06-22 7:16PM

It looks bad at this point. Sucks.

With enough gasoline one can always find fish

drxfish · May-07-22 7:54AM

Or a plane ticket or a spaceship.

Article came out today that space travel could warp the human brain so I'll pass on a trip with Elon

Upper PA, New or James should be good - if not the tribs drop faster and are fishable.

I know a little place that's a jewel when the rest of the area has high water - posted a banner day on RS and no one believed I found fishable waters, it's a drive

A airline ticket to FL will do....I don't like driving that far for fish.

I'm starting to agree with you as I age

Except for Canada - I'd need to buy an airplane and a rotorcraft ticket - so I'll drive

Every. year.

Drove over the Rapp today and it was Yoo-hoo.

Almost 17' at POR and not cresting yet!

Considered a "minor" but almost "moderate" flood. Perhaps the smallies will adjust.

hookup · May-08-22 9:23AM

Got a call this morning to not bother with the James or its tribs

They're flooded too

Good thing is you can run up Balcony falls in a jet now

drxfish · May-08-22 12:28PM

It would be interesting to see how much rain it takes for flooding compared to in the past. 2-3" over 3 days is really not that much rain.

hookup · May-08-22 12:34PM

It's enough to cause

Not normally but this was the entire watershed getting soaked. No stream within 100 miles of our rivers was spared.

drxfish · May-08-22 3:59PM

It did. I know. I just asking about the trend vs past.

drxfish · May-08-22 4:00PM

I was thinking about that. Everything sosked.

Ernie · May-08-22 8:04PM

Been watching this since up above Shepherdstown...

More structure in the river

drxfish · May-09-22 8:07AM

Oh, the power!

drxfish · May-09-22 2:17PM

More rain coming this weekend before the river drops back fully...

Ernie · May-10-22 8:18AM

From the Potomac Riverkeeper: Update on one of the loose barges. This one is stuck on dam #4 because the equipment came off and is anchoring it in place. Once the river is safe, the contractor will assess the appropriate way to remove barge and equipment. The barge is modular and could be airlifted in separate pieces as well as some of the equipment.

The other one is resting comfortably near Harper's Ferry.

Crazy stuff.
