Forgot to add:

Last Saturday, the 5th, a fly fisherman tried to run the river from Middle Dam
down to the Pond. He made it just past Harbeck Pool before he capsized. He
tried to wade ashore and got his foot stuck between some rocks. Fortunately
there was a big rock to hold on to. When his waders filled, he did the
smartest thing and cut them off. The water temp was 53 degrees and he stayed
clinging to the rock for more than an hour before someone heard him. A friend
(Murry) waded out and tried to free the man's foot, but couldn't. So Harry
lowered the dam to less than 100 cfs and they managed to free him. A
helicopter and ambulance made it in from Rangeley, but the guy refused their
services. Most of his stuff (back pack, vest, etc) was found, but not his 4
pice Sage rod. So..............
