Wooohhhhh! Everyone be careful out there with these crazy new "high" flows.
This is just so sad. Hopefully we get a ton of rain next year, even though we have been saying that for 4 years now.
So long and thanks for all the fish!!!

Remember when it was 5,000 cfs during the Shad run?

I fished it when it was 12-13K cfs one year and it was red hot. The shad were holding 2-3 ft. from the bank. I had to crawl on my hands and knees through a blackberry patch to get to the only fishable spot. I didn't see another person fishing except for Bruce until it dropped to 8K.

If your not touching the bottom after you let your fly dangle, your not low enough. The water flows at a different speed in different sections. Just carry extra heads to swap out depending on where you are fishing.
I generally carry a type I, 2, 3, 4, and 6.
That is just my 2 cents. Others will say others wise and some will agree.
So long and thanks for all the fish!!!

I am currently using a 15 ft. Type 6 sink tip with my Skagit setup but with the bump in flow to 1500 cfs I might have to go to a Type 8 sink tip. It really depends on where you're fishing (current speed and depth). It's best to be 1-2 ft off the bottom during your swing. I have Floating, Intermediate, Type 3, Type 6, Type 8 tips, Mow tips, LC-13, T-14, T-17 and T-20 to fit the conditions
I use a split shot
Or two..... Gets it down there.
