River Report/Conditions

River Report / Conditions – August 4, 2018

August 4, 2018, Author: Patrick Cook

The West is currently high and dirty, but dropping fairly quickly. About 85 cfs/hr. The Upper West (above the sewage treatment plant) and Upper East are fishable at the moment. The West should clear nicely by late tonight and into tomorrow. The rain is holding off for the next couple of days, so fishing this weekend could be quite productive.  The forecast is calling for cloudy day and a high/low of 83/68 with West winds at 3 mph.
