Photo of the Day.....
was was posted on
RiverBills Boaters Group a few days ago and it is getting a
lot of attention, so thought we should make it the Picture of
the Day !
It's a Mudpuppy
The common
mudpuppy is a species of salamander in the genus Necturus. They
live an entirely aquatic lifestyle in parts of North America in
lakes, rivers, and ponds. They go through paedomorphosis and
retain their external gills.

Upper Mississippi River Basin
Heavy, Wet Snow Has Increased Spring
Flood Risk........
The heavy, wet snow that has blanketed upper
Wisconsin and Minnesota is expected to cause flooding this
spring along the Mississippi River and there is a possibility
that the flooding could be severe.
Oh Thursday, the National Weather Service had
released a spring flooding outlook that stated that the flood
risk is "much above normal". This forecast is based primarily
on heavy snowfall that has occurred over the past six weeks.
Jordan Wendt, service hydrologist for the
National Weather Service in La Crosse says that the region's
snowfall has been wetter than usual this winter, meaning that
there is a higher amount of water trapped in the snowpack........

Fishing News From Lake Erie
Two Anglers Plead Guilty To Cheating
During Walleye Tournament........
On Monday, two anglers pled guilty to
stuffing lead weights and fish filets into fish during a Lake
Erie fishing tournament last year. Cuyahoga County Court of
Common Pleas Judge Steven Gall will sentence the men on May
11th.
On September 30, 2022, 43 year old Jacob
Runyan and 36 year old Chase Cominsky competed in the Lake Erie
Walleye Trail tournament in Cleveland. The tournament director
noticed that their walleyes weighed more then they looked like
they should and sliced open the fish, which contained ten lead
weights and several walleye filets.
Runyan and Cominsky stood to have won a total
prize of $28,760 if they had won the tournament. Upon the
discovery of their cheating, the anglers were immediately
disqualified........

Mississippi River Near Minneapolis,
Minnesota
Lowered Water Temps Near Monticello
Nuclear Plant Kills 230 Fish........
On Monday, Xcel Energy reported that lower
water temperatures in the Mississippi River have killed about
230 fish near their Monticello nuclear power plant after the
company shut the facility down to repair a cooling system leak.
Xcel spokesman Theo Keith says that when the
plant is operating, it draws cooling water from the river,
returning it at a higher temperature. When the facility is shut
down, the river temperature falls, affecting fish in the area.
They took the plant offline gradually to mitigate the effects on
fish, but 230 died.
Xcel began powering down the facility on
Friday to allow crews to replace a 50 year old pipe that leaked
tritium contaminated water into the groundwater. Keith says that
the tritium was not a factor in the fish kill........

Mississippi River At St. Louis,
Missouri
Closure Of Westbound JB Bridge Bumped
Up To Wednesday........
The Missouri Department of Transportation has
announced that they will be accelerating the planned closure of
the westbound span of the Jefferson Barracks Bridge carrying
Interstate 255 over the Mississippi River to Wednesday night in
an effort to avoid forecasted inclement weather this weekend.
The closure is part of an ongoing bridge
rehabilitation project that resulted in the eastbound span being
closed last year. The crews had started closing two lanes on
Monday, between 6 pm and 5 am. These closures will continue
Tuesday and Wednesday, with the westbound span closing by 5 am
Thursday.
Traffic will be shifted to the eastbound
span, with two lanes of eastbound traffic and two lanes of
westbound traffic crossing the river. The westbound span will
remain closed through December........
