was curious when do the high summer flows normally start to come down to say 400 or less. these flows and this heat is making fishing rather diffucult !
The link to the Putah Creek flows used to cover 2 years, which made it very useful. For some reason, the link now only covers 31 days. If the other link is still available, perhaps we can switch back.
I keep a journal of all of my Putah creek fishing. I always record the stream flow. During the past three years they have dropped the flow to around 400 CFS somewhere around mid-September. Since the flows are driven by irrigation needs, I would think that the timing varies a bit from year to year. The flows are gradually decreased until they reach Winter flows sometime in mid to late October.
