As you can tell, there are some questions about the height of the river. But as we found, there are lots of bugs still about in the shallows and riffles.

And you thought that you only dug these up in the garden? And the Squirmy Wormy that Chris had caught the only fish of the day. Yes, they work and especially so in high water when they get dislodged

An unusual "alien monster" from the shallows of Putah. Appears to be a Hellgramite which aren't seen too frequently here. Nasty little sucker with huge jaws. The team found two of these guys.
