Flaming Gorge Water

I called FG fly shop to ask what the increased flows will mean for the fishery. He said for this year it’s good for fishing. Perfect flows are around 1500 cfs. At 850 the rocks are trickier to dodge. We floated the green 3 weeks ago at around 850 cfs and got hung up twice on the shallow rocks. We were in a raft so no big deal. Hate to try that in a hard boat. Fishing was still really good though.
