    We have a winter weather advisory in effect from 1am till 7pm tomorrow. Lake effect snow 4-6" is what they're calling for. Don't know what the creeks look like but figured I'd let you know about the snow.

    The worst day hunting or fishing will always be better then the best day at school or work!

    if the guage is going down... the water level is dropping

    theres a thread on this site about how to read the graphs...


    I've seen over a dozen threads about how to read the graphs and what levels people think are too high or just right, in the last year or so. This page should help:

    "like your thing says better to have bad day fishing or hunting then to be at work or home with the wife"

    -His signature doesn't say that
    -Bad day of fishing=better than being home with your wife....sorry man, that really stinks. Marriage is usually a great thing.

    "Come, follow me," Jesus said, "and I will make you fishers of men."

    Probably still going to be cloudy.

    Men and fish are alike. They both get into trouble when they open their mouths.
