I knew it flooded pretty bad this Summer, but I had no clue how bad. There was debris in trees 20 or more vertical feet off the stream bed. Clean up efforts are underway, but there's some big stuff in there...Cars, camping trailer frames, hot water heaters. Will try to make at least one of the clean up days. Not gonna be easy work given the topography. Have no clue how they'll get some of the big stuff up and out of the lower gorge.
This was between Kline Rd. and the mouth. It was like a completely new stream...massive holes were formed and nothing looked the same to me since the last time I was there...April 2017. Much heavier water stretching further upstream than before. Worst small stream flood damage I ever recall seeing. Good news, three surviving wild Browns were caught and released, but most of those new massive holes appeared vacant. Anybody else been down there since the flood?
Amazing how local of an event this was. I fished a neighboring stream today too that showed no evidence of a recent flood event.
