Another excellent day on the Arm. We launched at first light out of Seven Bays and headed up the Arm. The water is again pretty dirty with about a foot of visibility. Stopped at buoy 1 and my buddy got a 12 lb. pig on his first cast; she came out of less than 6 FOW. We spent the rest of the day fishing a back eddy; we were sitting in the back eddy and casting to the edge of the current. The eyes were hitting as our jigs swept down river with the current. A 3/8 oz. jig worked the best as you could flutter it in the current at the end of the drift. It ended up being a 40+ fish day and we kept a limit of nice eaters. Seven Bays launch is now below the minimum water level; I guess we will have to hit Banks or Rufus.

Just checked the current water level and the forecast level.... by Friday Spring canyon will be closed leaving not a single ramp open for about a week. Time to lace up the boots and go shore fishing in those eddy's! Thanks for the report!

By the launch and water level website, it looks like the Seven bays launch is out of the water, as well.
Yuck, yard work.

We also tried to get out on the water in the beginning of the week and called Seven Bays Marina and they said it was closed Monday!

Lake level was 1224.2' as of 7am this morning. All launches EXCEPT Spring Canyon are high and dry. Hydrologic forecast has level at 1222.05' @ 11am Friday and I'm sure NPS will barricade it before then.
