Know if your river is fishable tomorrow — before you make the drive.

Each afternoon dam operators post the next day's generation schedule. Knowing when generators are running — and when they're off — lets you plan your trip around the best wading windows.

TailwaterAlerts watches the schedule for you. The moment it posts — usually between 2 and 4 PM — you get an email with the full hourly breakdown so you can plan your trip tonight.


Here's what the email looks like
