DSR Fishing Report for 26 August 2026: REPORT: We had 36 guests join us on the run today. A majority of our guests trickled in over the morning hours, with the remainder of our guests joining us on the run beginning early afternoon. As our earlier guests left the run, there were reports of multiple sightings of salmon moving up-river. A fair percentage of our guests were able to at least hook up with a salmon, however those brought to hand were generally one’s and two’s. As we moved into late afternoon and early evening, those guests who came off the run reported greater degrees of success with both hooking up and bringing salmon to hand; fish became more active as daylight diminished. CFS / WEATHER: The flow from the dam is currently at 185 CFS and is scheduled to remain at that level until 11:59 PM on Thursday, the 27^th.  The Pineville gauge is currently at 244 CFS. Tonight: Some clouds. Low 64F. Winds SE at 5 to 10 mph. Tomorrow:  Isolated thunderstorms in the morning, then mainly cloudy during the afternoon with thunderstorms likely. Storms may contain strong gusty winds. High 77F. Winds SSW at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 60%.

A reminder that, effective this season, we are asking that all categories of guests check-out with us, either in-person at the Welcome Center, or telephonically, when they leave the run for the day; this will enable us to more effectively monitor and control the number of anglers on the run, in order to meet both the spirit and intent of our daily angler limit.
