Daily fishing verdict · 2026-07-09

Pressure's falling and storms are possible — fish it early.

Water's sitting at 75.7°F with flow steady at 46.4 cfs and slight color. The DO daily range topped out at 5.6 mg/L, so there's a workable window before temps climb — probably your best fishing before the afternoon. A 68% chance of precip arriving later makes morning the smarter bet, though I can't guarantee how fast the bite turns on.
