Again looking at the USGS flow rate data for the Cheoah River at Bearpen Gap (https://waterdata.usgs.gov/monitoring-location/0351706800/#parameterCode=00060&period=P365D&showMedian=false), it looks like the power company "turned off" the ambient discharge rate from Santeetlah Dam at the end of May last year and the summer river levels are quite low.
There are only two weekends on the schedule between now and the end of May that are not planned for high release "flood events". I'm sure that I can fish with my tenkara or do overhead fly fishing at the super low summer levels, but I am interested in finding new rivers to spey cast and swing wet flies.
It looks like I will need to get back up there this coming weekend and the first weekend in May to explore the swinging opportunities.
