The Slough--What's left of it. June 27

They've turned the Slough into a ditch with backhoes and dump trucks.  What was a meandering spring creek with weeds, eddys, mud, and hatches is now a sterile, mostly fishless ditch.  I found a remnant little pool with a few rising fish just below the ruined zone, fish that just happened to be eating the last couple of pmd's that floated by every now and then.  The final curtain, so to speak.  Maybe this public spring creek will return to glory some day, but for now, stick a fork in most of it.

The new ditch.  Bobber water.
