Default Flooding the rivers

The Rain in Maine falls mainly.... EVERYWHERE!

Folks are flooded out and can't collect federal flood insurance because
of the floods in the south. Theres Talk that the Salmon Falls dam might
not hold! This thing is holding back a lot of water. There is a
possibility of a domino sort of effect down the saco through biddeford
if it lets go. Pretty scary.

I am near the river but luckily quite up hill and out of the flood
zone. Dang we sure did get a lot of rain in a week. The fishing has
been lousy.
Who would have thought that this time of year I would be getting ready
to tie more flies. I hear the Stripers are certainlyup... but I cant
get them to bite in the river mouth down by camp ellis.

I wonder if its just my luck. Any other Mainers.. stay dry and hope
your safe.
