I wonder how the hatchery is doing. With low water and a gauntlet to get through I'd assume its gonna be tough.
A co worker was there last weekend and said it was absolutely insane with people, worst he's ever seen. People securing a spot at 3:30am and a line of people on the bank just waiting for an opening.
Not my cup of tea..

Sooo- bought a new GMC Acadia AT4 -Love it- all the bells and whistles including free On Star for a month.
Well this AM wifey takes her new vehicle to a Golf Tournament a good distance outa town.
Half hour after she leaves I get a computor message from OnStar saying that she has only 14 pounds of air pressure in her left front tire,
As she is out on the highway and I call her immediately- she says there are no in car alerts about this as one would expect in a modern fully equipped vehicle as soon as she got to the venue she looked over the tires and said nothing looked outa the norm.
OK, now I gotta go check it out sooo- load the air tank into my truck and go the the parking lot at the far off Golf Course.
Get in the car after looking at 4 normal looking tires and check the computerized air pressure gage-
All is just fine- leave her a note and go back home and read the message gain.
Seems that along with the BS pressure alert there is a lot of BS about buying On Star permanently.
I will NEVER buy On Star and fully intend a nice conversation wit the dealership ASAP.
 
 Inconvenienced- annoyed and alarmed at what seems to have been backhanded sales pitch

I had On Star in my vehicles ever since it came out. The idea was because of the distance I was driving to work (50+ miles), often at night, in areas that had sketchy cell service at best, the crash notification was worth the $10 bucks a month. I probably never used any of the features that came along with it other than the hands free calling on occasion.

Fast forward to October 2019 and the cost is now about $25 per month and I’m no longer making that commute. I’m sitting at a stop light for several minutes when a drunk driver rear ends me without even braking. My Equinox, with my foot solidly on the brake for the red light (never saw him coming), was hit so hard that it got not only shoved across the wide, white intersection line, but halfway across the crosswalk lines. His vehicle was smashed to the point that his dash was bent.

In the end, there was over $24,000 worth of damage to my vehicle (which was 6 months old) — darn near enough to total it.

So, I’m paying bills and I have the habit of going over every line of credit card statements and there is the charge for On Star. And I started to think — I called 911 after the accident on my cell. On Star’s voice never came on. In other words, I got hit test hard and the crash notification that was the sole reason I paid for the service all those years had not worked at all.

I then canceled On Star and the call center person couldn’t understand why.

I spoke to a guy that said he somehow gained access to Beaver Brook and walked it down to the SR and it had no fish,very shallow at the junction.But I called the hatchery a few days before I got there and they said they had fish but not tons of them??????

Being technologically  challenged I tried to copy the message and deleted it- so I called On Star for a resend.
Told them what happened and now they claim the cant find the message for the resend as it must have been 'computer generated' BS  BS - blame the computer.
 
NOT a very reputable business IMHO.
 
Oh yea- they also tried- twice- to sell me a long term package- lol.

Wish I was on the upper  river this coming week- some nice reports from down low of late.
As time passes this may be about as good as it gets this year.
 
Annn one facebook fisherman says upriver is still pretty lousy  despite low reports.
 
next week up there ????
