River Report 3/20/12

As of yesterday the rivers in the area were running really fast and high. The radio even reported a flood watch for some areas in the Keweenaw because the water level was getting so high. On Saturday, I checked out the Traverse river and that still had ice on it, however I imagine that to be gone by now. Eagle River on Sunday was was flowing very heavily, pushing a lot of debris out into Superior. Last night, the Tobacco River in Gay was roaring into Lake Superior and it looked a bit too rough to fish. Most of the banks were washed down to the big rocks and there were several trees sitting at the mouth of the river that had been pushed down stream! The power of water is quite impressive!

Stay tuned and enjoy the pics.
