River: Dropping back to previous level before rain, good for canoeing.

Fishing: Sea trout still running. Not feeding well from surface which make dry fly fishing success spotty, more success in strong water with a wet fly.

Wildlife: Spotted today, moose, beaver, muskrat and our two Canada geese families have goslings.

Ice holding in river which is very low for this time of year. Open pool in front of the cottage. Fished 10 minutes in evening after wind died down, hooked salmon from shore.

Currently the most appropriate approach in this pool would be with insulated chest waders.

Weatherman predicting an improvement with climbing temperatures. This should cause the water level to come up.
