The flows on Sunday went from a managable 18,000 to 20,000 cfs and then on Monday to a staggering 23,000 cfs. That type of flow makes it pretty difficult to row, let a lone catch a fish. We are hoping the river is peaking today or at least in the next couple of days. Check out the flow prediction page from the Advanced Hydrologic Prediction Service.

It looks like flows should be back to a more “fishable” stage by the end of the month. Until then…I might go fish for some carp!
