Re: Jig rod question for the Powell guys...
R.Cook, I have the 705, 704, 735, 764. Of these, I like the 704 and 764 for 3/8 and 1/2 oz jigs. The 704 and 764 are fairly light rods as far as weight is concerned. The 705 gets a little tip heavy, but may be better for 3/4 to 1 oz jigs. For a 7'6" rod, the 764 feels remarkably light. What lin...

Re: Clear Lake water level
That's a good point, Bob. They need rain to dump on Clear Lake and all the valleys and mountains that surround it, so that it creates runoff. The years that Clear Lake fills up are years where there are a series of storms that saturate the ground then create overflowing streams. We need a pineapple ...

Re: Clear Lake water level
Clear Lake did not come up much. It rose about 1-3/4" right after the storm but has fallen back to the level prior to the storms. The surrounding area is so dry it soaked up all the potential runoff.
