Ran Hosterman to Cass on 5-17-19.
Durbin 370CFS or 2.2
Buckeye 950CFS or 3.5= plenty of water- nearly a perfect level for tandem WW boats.
The AW minimum of 4.5 is ridiculously high! Heck I'd be on a nearby creek if Buckeye was running at 4.5- John Duke

2.1 feet on the Durbin gauge. At this level, some water reading required, but no scraping.

Ran this section on Sunday May 28th. Put in at Hosterman and took out at the Cass railway parking lot. Flow was at 4.5 at the start of the day and went down. Scraped at one section of shoals just above Cass. Level was at 4.0 by then. Caught Rainbow Trout and Small Mouth Bass. River temp was around 68 degrees and very clear. No real rapids to mention. Two class two features just above Cass on river left. Easily avoidable if you have beginers or kids. This is truely a beautiful river and a fun family tripp if your lucky enough to catch runable levels in late May.
