This morning Jason called me and asked, “Have you seen the Gauge?” Rest assured, I don’t yet have the stream gauge wired into my dash but I’m working on it. –Could it be the work of the Grinch?…

The news Jason was alluding to is that the river has moved from 87 CFS yesterday to 767 CFS this morning and now it’s dropping quickly, but let’s just say that for now, at 681 Cfs, it’s simply too high to fish Hon. The Gunpowder river does recover very quickly and with any luck, someone will put a stop to this rain, –maybe the Lone Ranger can help…

If the rain subsides, we’ll be fishing streamers by Saturday afternoon. Until the water resides, enjoy these pictures from Hampden of the Mayor’s Christmas parade.

Thanks to Mayor Dixon and the folks down at the Department of Public Works – Bureau of Water & Wastewater for a full reservoir this Christmas!
