Daily fishing verdict · 2026-06-05
Smallmouth fishing possible, but oxygen remains a real concern.
Water's at 66.7°F — right in the smallmouth wheelhouse — and flow is falling with decent clarity at 4.7 FNU, so conditions look fishable on paper. That said, dissolved oxygen at 3 mg/L is uncomfortably low and fish may be sluggish or pushed shallow looking for better-oxygenated water. A 55% rain chance tomorrow could shake things up, so today may be your better window — just don't expect easy fishing.
