Trout

I spent $13 for the read the water temp.

With all the rain, I am thinking Sunday will be a good day to fish.

Ambient temps will be in the low 80's plenty high enough to drive water temps up into the low 70 range. And plenty high enough to kill trout already stressed from the last 2 weeks. Go fish a tail water like the Delaware or hit the smallies. Give the trout a break until the fall unless your going to keep them. Then have at it.

So I went to Black River my usual spot. The river was way down and the temp with my new tool read 70F. Packed my stuff and went home.

Will be taking out my bass equipment now.

Kudos to ya for giving the trout a break when they needed it! They'll be there ready and willing when the conditions improve, and hopefully the 'trout gods' will smile upon you when that time comes!

there are def spots that get fed by cold mountain streams and such where the water temps are totally safe to trout fish.
