Scroll down to the graph on the bottom.
Normal flow on the Fox is about 700 cubic feet per second.
According to this, in the past year it’s hit that or lower only twice and it was for a very brief period of time.
Didn’t think it was that bad.
Damn rain. I’m getting a little tired of it.

Saw a article in the Tribune this week that this was the wettest spring since '27 I believe.

Amen... I've been out on the rivers/creeks twice, and both times were pretty unfishable.

Re: Damn rain. I’m getting a little tired of it.
The creeks are perfect right now. Checked them out on Thursday. The river isn't too bad if you know where you're wading. I did get out into the current a little too far today and got pushed down stream a little harder than I like. Luckily no deep holes nearby.
