Forecasts look tempting for both Hood River and the coast tomorrow. Anybody have an opinion for best results?

N. Coast looks great today and Sunday afternoon, Sat, not so much.

Rufus looks good Sat and turns east on Sunday.

Pick your poison

Squatch knows the call for tomorrow. Fishermen are already setting up shop based on last Tuesday's solo session. Water is down so nice area to rig etc. Come get it!

Rufus (or Roosevelt) looking good for Saturday.

From NOAA: EASTERN COLUMBIA RIVER GORGE
.SATURDAY...MOSTLY CLOUDY WITH A SLIGHT CHANCE OF RAIN IN THE
MORNING...THEN PARTLY CLOUDY WITH A SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS IN THE AFTERNOON. WINDY. HIGHS 60 TO 65. WEST WIND
15 TO 20 MPH INCREASING TO 20 TO 30 MPH IN THE AFTERNOON. CHANCE
OF PRECIPITATION 20 PERCENT.

From Temira: Tomorrow brings gusty westerlies at 13-16 near Hood River with gusty 25-29 east of Mosier for much of the day.

Does anyone know the new link to check the Rufus current?

My old link doesn't work anymore. But thanks to the lack of snow, it doesn't look like the flow is supposed to go much over 200,000 CFS all season.

Also from Temira; "The Columbia is at 169kcfs, which is insanely low for this time of year – we should be seeing double that. You should have no problems with current at Maryhill. River water temp is 46 degrees."
