    Driving over the Manawatu river this morning near Massey, dirty brown reasonable flow some islands were just visible. Hopefully should drain to an acceptable level. Is it still raining up your guys way?

    Dundee you need to build yourself some stilts so you can still cross the river.

    Certainly was high this morning and with the snow melt should get rid of that summer/autumn weed and make winter fishing a blast when it clears.

    Was nice last night.Landed one.But word on the headwaters had a dumping last night so I turned two fisherman away today.It was clean at 1030hrs and dirty by 1800hrs.
    Takes a while for the water to get here from the headwaters as it is a bloody long river.Still don't know if my "river monitor brick" has survived the winter and spring.

    The river rose from 1.2 to 1.6 overnight according to my gauge. Flow from 5000lt/sec to 15000 lt/sec
    Will probably still rise after the runoff up river from the sheep shaggers enter the river ..fishing be over for a couple of days now.
