Daily Report

Saturday was a repeat of the previous day with once again very high winds and lake effect snow, more of the same is expected for Sunday. Yesterday we had no reports from anglers.  The release at the dam has been lowered and is now running 300cfs and the Pineville gauge was reading 544cfs as of early Sunday morning. With the heavy lake effect snow and cold temp's, slush ice was a factor in the mid to lower end of the river and did not clear. For those anglers who are fly fishing, dead drifitng with nymphs, indicator fishing with egg patterns or swinging small streamers with sink tips have all produced results. For those anglers who are bottom bouncing or float fishing, egg sacs, beads, pink worms and marabou jigs have all produced results.
