Fishing Report/Update August 14, 2021
Yuck, it's hot and smokey here for the 4th day in a row. I have been lucky to be escaping the worst of the heat and the smoke by getting up in Newberry Crater. At about 6400 feet it is much better.

I wanted to write this yesterday, but figured on April Fools Day it might be perceived as a joke. It is no Joke.
