The Chagrin is at this posting 1,270 cfs. It's big, but I was surprised at the clarity. Muddy? Absolutly, no question. But it looks like there is some promise. Upstrean along Chagrin River Road, ice is piled high, awaiting release. The runoff and the storm pipes were all trickling clear. Snow is still present, but there is a significant melt happening, and the future rain and "warmth" should finish off all of the kinetic water.

What I'm saying is the river MIGHT fish next week after the rain jacks it up to flood stage again this Thursday or Friday.

This makes me pretty excited. Keep your fingers crossed, and dance to the River Gods.

With that, I leave you on a positive note:
