The pics are still there. It was amazing how fast the jam came in and amazing how fast it went out too. Just a couple of hours for each.

I must be having a senior moment,I thought you posted those pictures on a new thread,but there they are just where you put them :)
With all that ice on the banks it will be awhile before it can be fished,unless your young and nimble.It should be clear by mid March I imagine.

It was prime on the Nut today. In a day or 2 it will be back to low & clear.

When my fly is down...I'm having a good day!

well made the two hour trip ti fish went to the nut first no hits at the stop sign hole or down toward mouth but guys were catching them at the first riffle by parking lot but we had no luck there so we went to elk to mouth and climbed down over the ice bank and had a bad day turn great hooked the first one only 15 minutes thier then it didnt stop for little bi out of four of us landed four or five and lost more than 15 at least

I do not know, when the ice jam broke away everything got flushed out to the lake.

I did not see any dead steelhead on the Nut early Sunday.  I saw one dead on 20 mile...as expected, someone zipped it.  Ah, it was dead anyway...can't blame them.

This is what they look like when they survive it.  Caught this one on 20 Sunday...it was still feeding and fighting.  I hope it makes it back to the lake to heal it's wounds.  It deserves to live after all of that.

Yep, I was down there today. But Nothing was jamming yet as of 4:00PM. We are supposed to get up to 3/4 inch of rain tonight. Could be interesting.

The lightening rolled me out of bed at about 2:00.  I am headed down to Walnut now to see if it jammed again.

No jam today. Walnut is running high gray mud/ Trout Run is out of its banks down near the pig pen.
