Flooding does...
Not hardly at all. Yes some clouding does occur, but in the overall that clouding is extremely miniscule compared to the whole river.
I fished, quite successfully immediately below (80-90 feet) from where they were working at the base of large rocks in the midst of the river. No visible amount of 'clouding' of the river even rose to the surface.
You have to remember - the amount of water coming down the river is probably something like many hundreds of thousands of cubic feet of water - extremely greater than the amount of matter and water that is proceeding up through the dredging operation.
Dredging is NOT the same as Hydraulicing!
