    Default Water coming....


    Just saying, Ohio river at Cairo has risen 10 feet in 2 days! There must be another rise coming.... Might give us a summer fall, I like those!

    The MS river is at 26.9 today (BR). It's predicted to be at 21.6 (BR)on 5-21-14. Slow fall which is good IMO

    I agree a slow fall is awesome! But there is suddenly a ton of water in the upper Mississippi and Ohio rivers. I am afraid there is another rise coming by 5-21

    That 10ft. rise was due almost entirely on a 12in. rainfall in less than 24hrs. Monday. That means it will have less of an effect when it gets here in about 10 days. Of course if they get a lot more rain in the Ohio Valley all bets are off. A May rise in the Atchafalaya River would be good for the crawfish crop as well as good fishing on the fall. Tight lines to all.

    That's true, guess it depends on the rainfall over the next two weeks along the river

    The ms river suppose to crest @ 35 ft at Vicksburg on the 14th. If no more big rains up north. A slow fall would be nice but I'm afraid once it starts falling again it the bottom will drop out.

    Mississippi at Baton Rouge is predicted at 29 on the 16th, should get a good fall after that.... End of May into June looks promising! Get Henderson while it's hot, about to stall or rise...
