Daily fishing verdict · 2026-09-16
Cloudy skies, 64°F water — flow holding steady at 469 cfs.
Smallmouth are at peak season and the temperature is right in their wheelhouse, but dissolved oxygen is sitting at 2.6 mg/L — that's been the limiting factor all week and it's still a concern. Kings may be trickling in early, though I'd temper expectations until conditions improve. Storms are possible Thursday, so today's cloudy, quiet window may be your better bet.
