But our last day they dropped the flows again, and you could tell the fish were beginning to leave the banks/shallows. My guess is that by now most of the fish are heading for the deepest pools they can find.

I heard that in Idaho they were going to take away limits because the water levels are so low they think most of the trout are going to die anyway. I friend I talked to said it was some of the best fishing he's seen in a while with fish concentrated in deep in pools to stay in cooler water.
