Today is March 23rd, 2008 and Happy Easter everyone.

Smokey's trout scout report will be quite short this week.

This is the first time this season that Smokey the Great Trout Scout gives trout fishing the big "Squat" which means trout fishing is not good at all right now.  The river swelled and was boiling red from the tremendous rain of last week.

The Smoker can't use a cell phone to call Operation Game Thief but when he sees poachers doing what they do he certainly wants to take a bite out of crime.  It is both unethical and a violation of wildlife rules, not to mention what it does to the whole of the outdoor community, to poach or go beyond established rules.  So, help the little trout scout with a snout out by plugging into your cell phone the number to Operation Game Thief - 1-800-522-8039.  You'll feel dog-gone good about it.
