5:00pm River Patrol Fishing Report:  The flow from the dam is 350 cfs; Pineville gauge is 453 cfs; water temperature taken at 3pm is 66 degrees.  It seems very likely that many of the fish milling about the estuary decided to make some movement upriver today as fishing was listed by most of the guests I spoke with as being the best this season so far.  From the lower end to the upper, except for the very top of the run, fish were brought to hand in solid numbers.  Kings, Cohos, a lone brown and steelhead were all in the mix.  Tomorrow we’ll start the day off in the mid-40s with S / SE winds reaching 10-12 mph, along with a slight chance of rain during the day, possibly having some thunderstorms move in at nightfall.  (Total Rain expected not more than ¼”.)
