flooding.high water level.

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

The water in front of my cottage in the Fort Coulonge area went up about a foot last week but 8 inches of that happened over the weekend. I would not be surprised to see another 4-5 feet of water by the end of April.

2002 was the worst flooding I have seen in my 15 years up there. The river is still 7 feet (2.5m) short of that mark.
