There are numerous dams on this river, and the gauge is downstream of this reach, but should provide good indicator for flow at this location.
I have no first-hand knowledge of good levels for this reach. My impression is it is almost always do-able, just different challenge and opportunities at different levels. Anyone with more specific information is welcome to add a comment (via the button which should appear on the "Comments" tab for all signed-up, logged-on users of the AW site).
