Michael J. Kachurak: Where can I obtain daily water conditions, i. e. , water turbidity, debris conditions,water level, etc. For Lake Aldred.
This summer's frequent storms have muddied local feeder streams to the extent that they are almost unfishable.
Lake Aldred is a favorite smallmouth and walleye fishery since my return to PA ten years ago. This summer has been a real bummer on the river.
