The current flows on the Delta Gage just above the lake are down to just above 2,000 CFS which is still somewhat big. Clarity is very good. You may be able to get in on some spots to fish higher up in the system, say Simms and north. We'd recommend fishing Hat Creek or Baum Lake. We'll stay on top of the flows and update the report when it drops back in.
