Flows on the lower end are rising through 3,100 CFS this morning. The river is also high through Dunsmuir. Clarity has been good, though. We will get some more storms over the next week which will add to the total. Wading just about anywhere on the Sac will be sketchy, so use caution. Baum Lake is fishing great and if you are Jonesing for a stream you should check out Hat Creek. We'll stay on top of the flows and update the report when it drops back in.
