Blame it on the computer age!!! This is a common complaint among all of us….is it not?
The Corp informed me this morning that the site that relays information about the flow will be down for some time due to updating equipment which produces the data. The site is totally down at this time due to a mainframe issue which is another matter. The main site should be up and running soon but will not show the flow (cfs). You will have to go by the height of the tail water to determine the generation. These will help:
No Generation…… 267.6 ft.
One Generator….. 272.0 approx.
Two Generators… 276.0 approx.
The phone line to the dam is also down and this is related to the same mainframe issue that they are working to resolve.
They were running 2 units this morning but today the generation was reduced to one unit at 8:30 am and will be running 24/7 for the rest of the week. This is due to maintenance on one of the generators which will cause it to be down for about 6 days.
The river is clear at this time and my suggestion is large nymphs while drift fishing for the rest of the week. Since there will be a moderate flow during this time please be careful of obstructions such as logs and docks while drifting.
Good Fishing!!
