Chatfield decreased to 80cfs at 11:30am Saturday, August 19, 2023. Sixx was surfed Friday at low flow but the Chatty drop to 80cfs will essentially take the surf out of Sixx, Chiclets, and Beavers and 16th to a point. Though the desperate surfers might hit Beavers anyway (it was surfed early Saturday) or Dave’s Wave

The main reservoir release gate will be reduced from 475 cfs to 350 cfs, and the fish hatchery will remain at 5 cfs today, Saturday, July 6, 2024. RRP: Sixx will likely need an adjustment as the water backs off but we should have an “A-frame” wave going between the walls. The line up will

The main reservoir release gate will remain at 700 cfs, and the fish hatchery will remain at 5 cfs today, Wednesday, July 3, 2024. RRP: Sixx looks almost surfable on the cam despite being at 850cfs or more at the wave. Currents and swims are a bit more tricky and difficult at this high flow

No official word yet but looks like 700cfs is the new flow out of Chatfield. Welp Sixx will most like blow out. Big Bennys is the place to surf. What a wild water year! LBK
