Same up here in the Elk River area.Water is still a bit high, but is dropping slowly.Current is moderate, but not near the usual slow summer current speed.Clarity is the usual,as MS Riverdog posted.

Fatbassman, I can only assume by your username that you have been after the brown bass, but specifically what are you fishing for? What have you been using to catch only catfish?

Topwater action for the smallies should be going already. I caught some 17's on Monday, using a white buzzbait.Poppers/PopR's will do the trick,too.

Got my 11th over 19 for the year today. Still lookin for miss 20. fish are still hitting tubes and are finally out from shore a bit. water is clearing up pretty good and is dropping till the next big rain. This beast was really fat.

Nice fish, eyeguy! My last trip was only for a couple of hours, and I spent too much time screwing around with a messed up trolling motor.I gotta put in some more time out there, to get on to some bigger fish. Good to hear the water is clearing up.

Mr fonz borrowed me the RP so I could take my son and future son in law out today. Good numbers but we couldn't top 18. Really started to get windy late morning. Here's a few pics.
