CFS at the dam remained at 1500 (through at least midnight tonight) - CFS at the Pineville gauge at 1890 - water temperature 35 degrees, air temperature ranged from high to mid 30s, overcast all day, very light winds, drizzled most of the day - despite the weather, we had a baker's dozen of guests join us on the run, starting from opening through early afternoon - as these guests trickled off the run, the reports were positive - one guest was able to at least get a tug, with all others bringing Steelhead to hand (egg sacks bounced on the bottom produced best) - the sole exception was a seasoned angler who commented "Water fished fine despite being a little high, conditions were great, I just couldn't connect today!" It happens to the best of us ... overnight low of 31 degrees, with a few snow flurries - forecast for tomorrow is: Mainly cloudy with snow showers around in the morning. High 33F. Winds NNW at 10 to 15 mph. Chance of snow 50%.
