On Saturday the morning temperature started out in the teens and slowly warmed up in the afternoon along with windy conditions. Several weather alerts have been issued in our area for Sunday and Monday which include a lake effect snow warning along with a wind and winter weather advisory. The release from the dam is currently running 295cfs and the Pineville gauge is reading around 425cfs. In the upper end of the river anglers have been getting into steelhead between Altmar and Pineville in and around the deeper holes and larger runs. In the lower end of the river when slush ice is not a factor, anglers have been getting into steelhead in the Town pool area, Longbridge, Black Hole and the DSR. 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.
