4-18-11 Report

Despite the cold weather and the snow storm, anglers had decent success over the weekend.  Attached is one of several fish caught by some fellow MN Steelheaders.

Here is the latest creel info from our friends at the DNR:
From 4/15 through 4/18, water temperatures ranged from 33 to 35 in the morning and 40 to 42 in the afternoon on the Lower and Middle Shore.  Water temperatures were 33 to 35 on Upper Shore tributaries. 

 From 4/15 through 4/18, interviewed anglers caught 51 Steelhead and 33 Kamloops on the Lower Shore, 19 Steelhead and 9 Kamloops on the Middle Shore, and 3 Steelhead and 1 Kamloops on the Upper Shore.  The Knife and French River Traps were opened in the morning on 4/18.  Stream flows on the Lower and Middle Shore are decreasing and becoming clear, while flows on the Upper Shore are still running high but becoming clearer. 

The run is on - get out and fish!
