Daily fishing verdict · 2026-09-19
Water cooling, flow falling — rain showers likely Sunday.
River's at 64°F and cooling, flow falling to 408 cfs, and clarity is holding steady at 2.2 FNU — all decent signs for smallmouth, which are at peak season. The catch, as it's been, is dissolved oxygen sitting at 2.4 mg/L, which is tough on fish; expect activity to be spotty. Rain showers likely tomorrow could shake things up either way.
