Anyone know why the Weber is running so high right now?
This would be below Echo.

Looks like there are letting water out for dam repairs.

I spent a few hours today on the Weber Wibber between the mouth of the canyon and Hwy 89. It was running a bit high and slightly clouded. Actually, that let me sneak right up on trout I could see feeding on emergers without spooking them. I got within rod length of a few, and simply dabbled a nymph an inch or so deep. I caught quite a few dinks and had one nice trout on - but the big one...well, you know the rest, LOL!

This should tell you what you need to know on a daily basis.

Thanks, Leaky.
Are these normal flows for this time of the year?
I would think that flows would be much lower right now.

How will we fill the reservoirs with this much water flowing now?

if i were a betting man i would bet 10 bucks that come the 1st of october the flows will drop since water shares are supposed to be fullfilled by than, or so i hear from some rancher friends

Yep, that is when they are shutting ours off.
