July 25, 2025

Since last Monday, our CFS at the dam was 285 to start on Tuesday, then dropped to 185, where it has remained for the last several days. The CFS at the Pineville gauge, from an initial high of 366, has since dropped to the mid 200s over the same period of days. Our weather conditions have been relatively stable, with temperatures generally in the mid 70s to mid 80s, with one day at 90 degrees, light winds, mixed overcast, humid. A few guests ventured out onto the run (except for today - we had no guests), primarily targeting either Smallmouth Bass or Fallfish, with isolated guests each day enjoying relative success, generally in the 12" to 14" range for the bass. The general comment was that these guests had to work the run top to bottom to find any fish. Anglers are having success on salmon just offshore; there is little doubt that some salmon are already nosing into the area of the estuary section of the river.
