Heading out again tonight with one of my guides. Mid day was a bust so we will see if they will be up and feeding in cooler weather. We will keep you posted via the UCC blog and twitter.

In the watershed world, "Upper Miss" can mean a number of things. Can you narrow the scope a bit? It's on my priority list to explore the Miss from Zumbro confluence downstream... for example. I'm envious of his conviction: getting out there and looking it over. I'll go check out the blog.
