The rain subsided yesterday, and the West Branch crested near 12,000 CFS. That is a little bit high, needlss to say. Most of the discoloration has left, and we anticipate it starting to fish again once we drop a bit more throughout the day. However, The river is still unsafe this morning, especially for wading. If the predicted rain misses us we should see the rivers begin to drop to safe levels overnight.
