The River had it's normal declining flows through july and August.

Don't forget that the area of Ah Pah creek is called the Crystal Palace due to meth production.

My friend the guide said you could smell it in the river while he fished the Lower Klamath.

The two pathogens are endemic in the klamath.

Water was held in the resevours and not allowed to be

filtered through the Klamath Basin wetlands. This coupled with a truly huge run of fish has a cascade effect on a large confined bunch of fish.

What would the water flows be in a typical September if there were no dams on the Klamath ? My bet is you couldn’t get a shallow draft drift boat over the riffles. The rivers feeding cool snow melt water are the Shasta, Scott and Salmon Rivers, all below the dams and they barely keep the riffles passable.

We owned a fishing lodge down river from Bluff Creek from 1972 until 1993.
