After an increase in the dam release last night quite a few anglers joined us first thing this morning, anticipating the surge to bring in some fish along with it.  Overall, based on reports from River Patrol and the anglers we spoke with today it seemed to just be a trickle of fish today with no significant numbers reported overserved nor caught.  A handful of king salmon were reported landed, with most activity reported in the morning. Ultimately with light movement and impending weather most anglers made their way off the run by the early afternoon.  The dam release is currently scheduled to remain at 750 CFS until 6:00 PM tomorrow (9/1).  Please monitor safewaters.com/facility/lighthouse-hill for updated dam release scheduling and information.

A cooler day today with mostly overcast and just a few glimpses of the sun.  Despite the lack of sun and air temperatures remaining in the 70's, water temperatures began at 66 F this morning and reached about 69 F by mid day.  Based on the reports from our River Patrol and the anglers that joined us today, there was definitely fish present, but not in significant numbers.  Most anglers indicated observing a handful of salmon moving through, more so over the course of the morning, with just a few fish reported hooked over the day.  The dam release is currently scheduled to increase from 350 CFS to 750 CFS tonight at 9:00 PM, where it is scheduled to remain until 6:00 PM Sunday (9/1).

As has been the pattern of late, the morning hours were best in terms of fish sightings as well as angling. Reports from our anglers indicate seeing more fish this morning than this afternoon. Not great numbers of fish sighted this morning, but a fish or two (sometimes three) sighted with some fish being brought to hand. The mid and upper sections seemed to where the most action was. With the bright sunshine this afternoon, a noticeable drop off in both sightings and fish hooked this afternoon River flow remains at 350cfs from the dam and at Pineville the flow is 377cfs. At 9:00PM tomorrow night the water will be bumped up to 750cfs at the dam for this week-ends white water release.

Cooler temperatures with mostly overcast skies today made things a bit more comfortable down on the run. Reports from the anglers today suggest that things have slowed down relative to the past few days. The fish are still "here and there" but not to the extent that we saw yesterday and the day before that and fewer fish were brought to hand. As has been the pattern, most of the movement seemed to occur during the early morning hours with another report of Coho being sighted

With the water level elevated a little, it's not possible to get a good reading on the number of salmon in the run, but based on many reports from todays anglers, I would say that there are plenty. A frequent comment given by anglers was "Yeah. There's fish down there." Just about everyone reported seeing fish, many had multiple hook-ups and numerous salmon were brought to hand. We even received a report of a Coho being sighted which seems very early. At 8:00PM this evening the release from the dam will be going to 350cfs which should make tomorrow and excellent day to be on the run.
