The water

West Branch Susquehanna River is a tailwater below Curwensville Dam in Pennsylvania, fished for smallmouth bass, trout. 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.
