Round Valley Reservoir Lowest I've Seen, and its Hot: Will Rainbows Arrive Soon?

Swung by to see my favorite reservoir after work. Fred told me it's down to the bottom of the ramps. See for yourself. Close. And on NJ Fishing.com, someone's post reported that water's being pumped into the South Branch. (http://www.njfishing.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=8) April, closer to normal levels may return. But the reservoir was very low in May this year.

What a heat wave! I like the hot weather and it's always a little sad to feel it go. But better fishing's ahead and I forget summer to enjoy it. The brisk weather too. Typically, rainbow trout come in shallow in about two weeks from now. Once that happens--surface temperature about 70--summer is over, no matter the hot day that might only happen singularly, not for a week, not even for two days.

It will be interesting to see if rainbows arrive on schedule.
