Bring on Runoff

That's right, we LIKE runoff.

Runoff gives us clean bottoms. If you fished the city last August, you'll have noticed the vast amount of weeds that were taking over the river. Not only does this make it damn hard to fish, but give a week of 30-40 degree weather and we'd have been in trouble with fish kills, etc.

Runoff pushes fish to the banks, and they realise they like it there. And we like it when they're on the bank.

Runoff gives the fish a break from us (well, it used to). It's nice to let the fish have a break now and then, and having zero visibility certainly lends a hand.

Runoff fattens up our fish, and removes the slackers. Catch a fish immediately after runoff, it will likely be the fattest trout of the year, and attached to a rocket. Natural selection at it's greatest.

So we're all for a big ol' clean. Just don't flood anyone out (or ask us when it'll occur)!
