On the rise...

At the end of last week, we had a pretty impressive storm move through and dump a considerable amount of rain on the area. Within 24 hours, most of our rivers and streams were on the rise, some big enough that it warranted flash flood warnings and watches. We were really needing a serious flush of most of our river systems so this rain was welcomed with open arms. This event will probably salvage our smallie season for the summer, maybe we will actually be able to float this summer...
