Daily fishing verdict · 2026-09-11
Sunny day, cooling temps — oxygen still the wild card.
Water's sitting at 67.1°F and cooling, flow steady around 545 cfs, and clarity is solid at 1.7 FNU — good-looking conditions on paper. The catch is dissolved oxygen at 2.6 mg/L, which is tough on fish and likely keeps activity streaky. Smallmouth are your best bet today; a few early king salmon could be pushing in, though I'd temper expectations until that oxygen improves.
