Hi Chris,
do you think he lower river will be fishable tomorrow? Thanks
C'mon people,
Stop putting so much pressure on Chris. Nobody, and I mean NOBODY can predict what a river will be like the next day.
What if he tells you it should be fishable, and then you drive all the way out only to find it blown.
What then? Are you going to sue Chris for the gas money and the distress and emotional pain that his wrong prediction caused you?
Your best course of action (as stated a thousand times before) is to take a look at the hydrometric data chart for the Vedder river.
Look especially at the levels of Slesse Creek above the crossing and the level of the Vedder above Slesse Creek. Those two combined will give you an idea of what is going on.
Then check the weather forecast and look at the precipitation that is expected within the next 24 hours. Anything under 15 won't affect the river. Between 15-30 will cause the river to rise. Levels above 30mm will impact fishing considerably.
Another thing: one person's 'fishable' is another person's' blown out'.
It appears there are people here who can catch steelhead 'LEGITIMATELY' in zero visibility.
I can't.
Good luck.
