Gents,
The Los Pinos at Ortiz is running today at 827 cfs. This is down from an outrageous 1600 cfs ten days ago.....I bet that cleared the dead wood out of the holes! No wonder Eubaldo and Victor put in those oversize, built like a locomotive, bridges on their properties....just to handle this annual spike in May.
Can't say what June will look like, but I expect that last week stands a good chance of being low enough and clear enough to be good fishing. We are looking for anything below 100 CFS, ideally below 50.
By way of incentive for this year's trip, we will be christening the all new, custom built, Los Pinos River Equipment Permanent Mobile Storage and Utility Trailer! Messick has been hard at work, between beers, locating, architecting, and fabricating, the new conveyance. He says it will be ready to roll in June, so you won't want to miss the debut.
Most of the crew will be on the river sometime between June 21 and 28. See you there!
