The Van Duzen is down below 200 cfs as of Thursday and is low and clear. If it continues to drop at this pace, it could close by early next week. In the meantime, bank anglers should be able to find some fish sitting in the deeper slots. Minimum flow: 150 cfs at the gauging station near Grizzly Creek Redwoods State Park.
