Thumbs down snow fish

Hi Dan good to meet you. Believe it or not I went to the Piscatiquis river for a couple hours. I flailed about in 20mph winds and caught nothing but the occasional rock. Just killing time till the fish show up in decent numbers(prob. two weeks).Good casting practice and I got to try out my brand new 8 wgt. flyrod.I also talked to the fisheries biologist at Cataract dam on the Saco river. He told me that stripers are being caught in the Saco but not in any numbers. He also said that this should be a banner year for herring in all Maine tidal rivers and he expects to put 500,000 herring over the dam(using a fish elevator). Things do look promising as herring are already at the dam three weeks ahead of schedule. Good luck to you in the coming season. Mal

on the eighth day God created stripers
