So, maybe it is where it'll stay for the winter leaving room for expected run off and/or meeting needs of downstream users? Don't know except that I typically fish it several times a winter with no on and off issues, but didn't fish it last year because of the poor edges.
I'm not sure about 'south fork' you mention as to my knowledge the Little Bear is what enters and exits Hyrum, and that is at times dry in summer few miles upstream of dam.
