The water
San Juan River (Navajo Tailwater) is a tailwater below Navajo Dam in Western Tailwaters, fished for trout — rainbow, brown. On dam-controlled water the generation schedule is the whole story: the wade window is the no-generation block, and rising water at the gauge means the pulse is arriving.
