August 18, 1997

Monday August 18, 1997 Red Deer River

We’ve had a lot of rain recently; particularly on Friday and Saturday last week. Check out the dam – arrive about 8:00 and there are anglers everywhere, notwithstanding that the river is now the color of well used dishwater. Meet Harold Hedlund & Ryan Adair – Harold is with the fire department; knows Jerry Burnett. We watch a guy (Bill Young) in my favorite stretch. The action is nowhere near the pace of last week, but still the occasional big snout thru the muddy water. Have a beer, watch this guy catch nothing. Bait chuckers below get a brown, according to Harold. I make a few casts after chatting with Harold for half hour or so (good story about guy floating the Oldman – gets dark, hears rapids – late – camps out-found under bridge next a.m. – ok)
