SNOW or lack of ?????

"river was @900cfs perfict"
Confused. Can I get a ruling on this? I seriously don't know what this means and was wondering if someone could explain.

[Slipknot]

he's talking about the flow-rate of the river
900 cubic feet per second and then he wrote perfect but he typed it in Dave speak.

glad you had an almost snow free trip Dave

[BigBo]

Ah ha. Thanks Bruce. So that raises another question. How do you know the flow rate? Is there a handy dandy flow rate meter you pack with your gear? And last question, what is the significance of a "perfect flow rate". I'm assuming it's a fish activity thing?

[piemma]

They post the flow rate in the local paper and at all the tackle shops.
I haven't been in 25 years but did get an 18# Steelhead last time I went.
