The water
South Fork Snake River (Irwin) is a tailwater below Palisades Dam in Idaho, fished for trout — cutthroat, brown, rainbow, cutbow. 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.
