The yamhill is running at 17 ft depth with about a 1,500 cfs discharge as of the latest readings here:

I had great luck bass fishing it last spring at 12 ft depth with about 300 cfs discharge. When I went bass fishing at 16 ft depth, 1200 cfs last spring, the water was a little too murky and tougher to fish.

Well I opted not to take the Canoe out I had heard from other sources the Dayton launch was a mess. I just went out with pole in hand just to get out on a nice day and drop a line in the water and sure enough the launch was a sticky mucky mess. Mud was deep and up the launch about 15 feet down to the water line no way is a vessel getting launched by foot and I would be hesitant to back vehicle down that also for anyone who may be thinking of taking out of there. As far as the fishing goes it was a bit slow but in my 4 hours 3 nice size smallies were pulled out. 1 by me about 13 inches, another fella pulled a 15 incher and as I was leaving a guy who just dropped his line in pulled out a mammoth 18 incher. So they are there just need patience. And for the bank fishers there is too is a bit slimy and mucky I would suggest some muck boots.

Thanks for the update on the launch. Glad to hear you had some success even if the fishing was a bit slow.

Yes, thanks for the launch info. The Yamhill crested at 40 ft earlier this year during all the rain...it must have been impressive to see...i hadn't even thought about the potential damage to the launch. Bummer...maybe the county will clear the mud and do some minor repairs?
