The flows from Britton remain around 360 CFS and this is a little high, you can fish it, but be careful wading. Flows from below the Pit 4 dam continue to be high around 450 CFS and 680 CFS at Big Bend. Apparently the road between Lake Britton and the Pit 4 Powerhouse will be closed during the day on weekdays for PG&E work. This work is scheduled to be completed in December.
This is a great river to fish a Euro rod and we highly recommend it. Be careful though, this can be a slippery river to wade. We recommend a wading staff when fishing the Pit.
Be aware that the flows on the Pit can and will change without notice, so definitely check before you go! And be prepared to get out when the river begins to rise.
Here are some useful links to monitor the flows:

Pit 5 - Through Big Bend
