Wow water will be backing up into Henderson by Friday!! River up to 10.4 by Friday
The Lake Pelba gauge says 10.73', and the gauge on the river over Butte LaRose says 7.07'. I guess I don't quite understand how this works, is the control structure closed on the south end?
River levels with structures at 9 ft anything above it will back up into Henderson!!
Run off from the rain. It will get worse once we get the snow melt from the North - much worse. Here's the gauge next to my driveway for the Vermillion:
Attachment 150884
Attachment 150886river at butte la rose
I think these two gauges have different datum points so they don't read the same, but should follow the same pattern, unless Northern locks are open and river is below 9'.Quote:

Yes sir , it will get much higher I believe with spring rise
16/18 ft I think !!!
Thats almost too high and spread the fish out everywhere.....but I am sure there are some guys here that know the sweet spots at those high levels.Quote:

TONY
Will this rising/high water hurt\change the sacalait spawn?
Yes lots of ice and snow will be conning for spring rise!!
I would say it will change the spawn, some of the old timers might have better answers about the spawn then I do!!
