What in the world man...

It was looking great, but this is not great.



Be interesting to see what the numbers do from here.

Water temp I think is playing a role. Let's see what happens after this week.

A vs B, not very hopeful. The B's that do make it over are more likely to get stuck in a net.

 

[skyriver]

Yeah definitely. The C is 73 at John Day and The Dalles. Some fish finally went over the Dalles this last week. The Bonneville pool has a BUNCH of fish hanging out in all the cold water refuges (CWR).
Hopefully there's a slug of fish doing the same thing below Bonny.

73.75F today at Cliffs/JD today. The good news is 72.68F at the Dalles. Hopefully no more heat waves this year.

Methow was 68 degrees and ridiculously low when I went weekend before last. Hooked a rainbow in the morning when temp was below 65 but was shocked when I found out how hot it was. Glad I had a slow day and bought a water thermometer for the future

It is ridiculous that the Methow didn't go into hoot owl this year. Seeing how the flows have been tracking since July has kept me off the water this year.

I have never seen a trout closure in emergency regs the past 4 years I have been seriously fishing except for when it is under the guise of protecting salmon from gear/flies they would never hit

Lwr deschutes was 65.5 on 9/4. in the morning.

 

[Yard Sale]

I was wondering if it was a big run or just an early run. Weird summer that started off cool but then got really hot/muggy at the end. Hopefully we get a rebound here at the end to have a decent run.

Yeah, tough weekend for D temps. Really warm nights. I checked temps a lot and it seemed to stay in the 64-66 range pretty much all day. Not great but at least not getting to the 68-70 range.

I am new to the details, can someone please provide the decoder ring for “A”, “B”, “C” and “D”? Couldn’t figure it out contextually in the thread. Thanks.

A and B refer to the steelhead runs (a is earlier, more numerous and smaller sized fish than B) C is the columbia river, D is the deschutes river

Run building back up. 900, 1700, 2000 plus in the last 3 days

B run getting tired of waiting. Temps look to finally be going the right way. Still 72 at the Dallas and 73 at JD, but going down.
