Thanks Brad. I won't be able to hit it for a couple of weeks. Hopefully the flows are still good!

It was a little on the tough side. Myself and two friends went out for about 6 hours and were strictly swinging Alevins with our switch rods. Between the 3 of us, 3 fish were landed and a few were hooked up and lost.

This just came out in the local news:

Is there a link to the flow only on the Low Flow Section, especially what the flow has been in last week? I just called the phone number in cyama's 3/11 post (copy below) and recording stated "release to Oroville River 815 cfs" which I think is the release to the Low Flow Section (reflecting the major increase that started today)?.


Question: this release is scheduled to end next Tues pm, so how long does it normally take the Low Flow Section to clear up (assuming no more heavy rain).

Flows in the low flow are generally kept around 600 CFS. You can call this number to get the release from the dam. 530-534-2307. To get the high flow add the low flow plus release from Thermolito.
