lets hope maybe it brings Adult fish up!!!

3,000 is just fine for wading! Yes I’d prefer 2,200cfs but many fish have been stuck wading at 3K+

There’s a lot of good water for sure, and no sketchy wading is needed to fish it. Honestly, some of the spots I like best at 3,000 or even 4,00p cfs. I suppose it all just depends where you’re focusing your efforts, and how lucky you get.
