#1- really crowded in the upper part of the river above Dam-Happy. Moderately crowded Happy-Betty's. Keep in mind those two sections make up only 9 miles of a 26 mile river.
#2- Nope
#3- Somewhat. I was there last night and it actually was cool after midnight (feeling of air temps). This morning I stayed out there until noon with a long sleeve shirt on for skin protection and just shorts under my waders. I wasn't complaining of the heat until I got out of the river and walked back to the parking lot. Then it was hot. I also wear a long billed flats style hat with a drop down neck protection.
With the coolness of the river if you are in it and drink lots of water it won't be any worse than a 90 degree day standing on a boat deck. Skin proctection and fluids would be my main concern.
Don't let the crowds keep you away from fishing it. There is a lot of fish in the river to be caught even with all the traffic.
