A river drawdown is the big buzz up here in Wisconsin's Nort' Woods. It had to be done to repair a seawall upstream from a paper mill. A whole lot of stuff from the logging industry was uncovered for the first time in many years. While some fished out old bits of crockery, bottles, etc., from the muddy river bottom, others helped the fish. There was more fish kill than anyone would have wanted (mostly young'uns) but less than had been predicted.
