Winter. Summer. Winter. The day began with cold. chilly temperatures and a thunderstorm which gave way to clearing skies around 8:00AM which stayed with us for the better part of the day with temperatures rising into the mid-60's. An absolute gorgeous day to be on the river (although the wind was a bit of a nuisance, but that died after a while). Then late afternoon things went back to winter with increasing clouds, rain and temperatures falling into the 40's. About a dozen anglers fished the run and while I was not able to get a report from all of them, the reports indicate that fishing continues to be tough. Only two anglers were able to bring a single fish to hand. One in the morning and another by aa season pass holder that fished for a few hours at the end of the day. With the rain that we received today I suspect that the flow from the dam will continue to be high for a while. The current forecast is for the water from the dam to remain at 1500 cfs through midnight tomorrow and the current flow at Pineville is 1940 cfs (and rising).
