Got to sinclair about 12 yesterday. water was muddy of course. but the bite wasn't as bad as expected. picked up some really nice fish(11). the 2 biggest were 12 inches long and super fat with eggs. the Roe was still firm but was a bit red also. with some luck and good weather for Feb i think we will have an early spawn. The rain and mud is only slowing us fishermen and women down, not the fish. water yesterday at mid day was 53.5 and the fish were in 17 fow. hope this helps. And this is no joke it was acid rain in rooty creek:D
