Daily Report

On Friday we had a mix of sun and clouds along with the temperature reaching into the mid 30's. Yesterday we did not get any new lake effect snow, the heavy band of lake effect snow stayed north of us and hammered the Watertown area. It actually turned into a really nice day to be on the water and anglers reported having a good day both in the upper and lower end of the river. The increased water flow has helped spread out the fish and anglers, allow the drift boats to cover more water as well as continue to bring fresh fish into the river.
