Members have kids they want to take for Catch & Release fly fishing on the Guad. Likewise, some members no longer have the strength & balance they enjoyed when younger. Currently, 675 cfs at Canyon Dam grows to 825 at Gruene, per https://www.gbra.org/conditions/data.aspx. These may be fishable flow rates for guides in suitable watercraft, but not, IMO, for people on foot. I hope GBRA will think proactively about this issue. Likewise, I’d like guidance from GRTU leadership about the feasibility of a dialogue w/ GBRA on behalf of 5000 GRTU members. Info about GBRA is at https://www.gbra.org/about/default.aspx along w/ info on the the board & management.
This is a wonderful activity. I’ll try to be there if the date is after Jan. 10.
CVC Condos, south fm Action Angler. Wading the Guad can be difficult, especially at these flow rates. Some spots are dangerous. Use a wading staff, eg: https://www.simmsfishing.com/wading-staff-1 Needs a retractable leash to go w/ it. Use boots w/ felt or studded soles because rocks are slippery. You can rent at Action Angler. If you or she are relatively new to wading in a rutted limestone river, you might wait until the flow rates are 250 cfs or below.
Previous Forum format was better, IMO.
