Water Clarity on the 'Hooch

On the metro Chattahoochee, silt and mud are the worst enemy of a good weekend fishing. I'm watching the Medlock Bridge gauge this afternoon and hoping to see the waters clear before Saturday. This spot is monotored by a USGS sampling station that feeds data ranging from water temperature, CFS, and most importantly, turbidity... or clarity.

Gin clear is a zero on the meter, a 15 and up is muddy, we were at 100+ last Saturday.

Here's to the 7.5 reading dropping to a 5 by the weekend!


Fish on,


Travis
