I was gonna fish the Alsea on saturday and sunday but I dont know if its going to be too blown out. WHat do you guys think? The river is around 2.7 and I think its supposed to jump to 6.0. Thats quite a bit.

Too many of you guys washed your trucks. 5 inches of rain is gonna make things interesting if it actually happens. Some folks might be rowing their boats to the grocery store around town. Tillamook farmers might need to put life jackets on their cows.

Good to hear! I hope we get quite a bit although most of the rain is supposed to be north of us. Hit Whitaker today but there wasn't a steelie in sight. So low and clear I went down stagecoach and landed a nook on a spinner. Let him go of course, but it was nice to hook a fish. Was surprised at how bright he was, thought it was steel when I first hooked him. Bring on the rain!
