Yep --
Certainly a large storm but now its down to a Cat 1 and has hit land where they traditionally weaken tremendously-
  Yes- lotsa rain and the power will be out cause of the winds but in all likelyhood NOT  as a hurricane but a tropical storm at best as it goes further North.
   What happened to the Cat 3 as it hit shore and only gonna get stronger from then on stuff from a day or two ago- 40 foot waves and weeks without power stuff- armageden for sure-The biggest storm in our lifetime -WOW-- AAAAAOOOOOWWWW wolf wolf wolf.
  I swear all the weather guys hold stock in toilet paper and bottled water companies.

Im in the path as well and not worried. I have my chinese food menu ready. Those chinese guys are always open and have delivered to me in blizzard wearing a t-shirt driving a corrola. One more thing this hurricane taught me, people love creamy peanut butter over chunky. Also during emergencies health food is the last option. All that was left at the store was healthy crap and chunky peanut butter. WTf

A good survival tip for emergency situations is: health food can be made edible by smothering it in either cheese, chocolate, or bacon . Chunky peanut butter makes an excellent rat trap bait. Or can be given to the neighbor  kid that busted your window last week.

Just passed my area jack... some power out and trees down... there are a lot of valleys by me so the rivers are swollen and there is some mass flooding going on... luckily im high and dry. My footings are under water but luckily they were hard and dry when I checked on them last evening...

Now; I heard 8-10 foot breakers on the lake today and tomorrow
.. im interested to see what all the upwelling will do to those schools of fish in 100 foot right now... time will tell...

   The weather idiots have done it again- Ya know if anything bad ever really happens we wont believe them. Sad.
   All those State Governors who were more or less forced into drastic actions because of  the overzealous reporting of  this 'storm of a lifetime' should try and sue the folks who produced the panic with what is clearly a -once again- many times in our lifetime -crock of bovine field splatter.

Hey guys back from the hurricane (tropical) Jam.. things went well with record #s and length fish caught. Great time and always EPIC !!

So I see there was a bunch of fish that came in over the last 2 days.. does explain why me buddies didn’t catch swqat on the lake thurs,fri & sat.. The water was calm and they were marking fish like crazy just very few bitters.. Even the pic's of the many I seen caught on the other sites, the fish are pretty dark as expected.. well thanks Pete for putting that Beauty Bow up.. Saving grace for fish usa.. !! good job and yup I guess there is fish in aug ..

seems I missed the whole diabolical debate "quotes' lol.. Really glad , I didn't miss much and not having the internet the last few days was GREAT !!..

well , I was able to "fish" .. used the noodle rod and caught pannies using a steelhead float, it was a blast !! Don't know if I'm anywhere near ready for a king yet.. Gonna hope for the best in the next few weeks.. I’d hate to have to cut the points off the hooks .. LOL !!

enough for today..

Hope everyone weathered the storm well and gets their reels screaming soon..

Understand all the flooding Dime- After that several inches a few weeks ago the ground was still too wet to take the rain and flooding happened. Didnt need a "storm of a lifetime" for that though - just more rain.
  Hey those barrier reefs are still there and they were supposed to be gone. Long Island didnt get cut in half and the place where the 40 footers were gonna be had waves-according to the weather reported standing there - of 3 to 6 feet. There were people walking the surf in the background.
    Saw one reporter holding up his little wind guage reporting gusts of up to 20 and 25 mph while he was clearly rocking back and forth on his feet giving the story- for some kinda affect I presume---IDIOT.

I finally walked outside late morning and took a look down my driveway,it's about 300' long,and there near the bottom a small tree fell down across it and the rest of the drive was covered with leaves,limbs,and walnuts.So I worked up a sweat cleaning all that up so we can get out of here.Then I look over at my pond and a large tree fell into it,that can wait!We're getting a light rain here but the wind is dying down and they are saying sun tomorrow.Went thru some flys and determined I need another fly box or two,guess I'll get that tomorrow.Can't wait for September!

Sorry guys Ive been gone, had my fiance's grandmother pass away so i been catering to her and she wont even let me think about fishing. Especially this morning when i checked my fly box and about passed out cause i need to do some serious tying.

Anyways, glad everyone is alright, and if its bad i hope everyone gets back to normal real soon.

I'm hopefully gonna get down to the river and reservoir see if its raised up a bit yet from the rain, in the last week i got about 3 inches of rain, and have been cooling down at night, yesterday at 5 i was down to 55 outside.

We've all been talking about how we need rain, but i wouldnt want it this way especially you guys in NE and PA that got hit hard.

.. if they cancel this release for labor day im gonna be pretty ****ed... they could've knocked the water down to 100 cfs weeks ago...

That would've done WONDERS for the browns,skams, and Alts already in the system

Good point slayer; although back in low flow years there were more thana few times that the church hole would be holding a ton of trout... id just hate to see them have to pull eggs from out west again; also imagine all of the trout that will get slaughtered if the 100 cfs flow comes our way in peak season... I guess its hard to determine which would weigh out the other...
