Fifteen Minutes!

TIME: 11:00 AM to 11:15 AM

WEATHER:  Clear, mid 70s

WATER CONDITIONS:  0 – 1 Unit

LOCATIONS FISHED:  Norfork River, Mill Dam Eddy

ROD USED:  8’ 9” 5 wt Winston Joan Wulff Favorite

FLIES USED:   #14 Norfork River Scud (Olive), #20 Red/Silver Zebra Midge

OTHER:  Fished solo.  Walked in at Mill Dam Eddy, caught 3 fish, but noticed the water coming up—CONTRARY TO SWPA SCHEDULE!  This is happening too often.

About the only thing that will resolve this is for concerned citizens to contact the US Army Corps of Engineers, Little Rock, District Commander and request resolution.  It does absolutely no good to contact the local (Mountain Home) Corps office.  If contacting the District Commander doesn’t work, if enough voters contact their US representative or senator (not local/state representative or senator), stating their concern and frustration, and requesting the US congressman or senator use their position to resolve the position, then it will be resolved, particularly if the congressman or senator threatens to suspend operation and maintenance funding for the Corps!  I promise this will work!  Is my frustration showing?
