The Mad is in good shape. We have been seeing a multitude of aquatic insects the past few weeks, as with many local streams. Caddis, Mayflies, midges, craneflies, stoneflies and some ants.
Good spinner falls at dark.
Also, the gravel road down from Rt. 36 to the RR trestle is now off limits, you can no longer park at the trestle. Please, Please, Please be respectful of a landowners rights. We are starting to face some important access issues on the Mad and if we are not careful it could all go down the tubes. Please join the Madmen chapter of TU and get involved in river clean-ups and habitat improvement projects.
