Andy, personally I think you'll be safe if you launch up at the Barrier Dam boat launch, hang out up around that water. I personally wouldn't take your boat more than a 1/2 downstream from there. Anything after that, with these super low flows, you'll lose a prop, or possibly more.

The salmon stack up below the barrier launch, so at least you'd be cool for them.
