Could be a whole number of species that jump there. At the moment, Redhorse species are spawning, and they are known to roll or jump. Smaller ones are usually Shorthead Redhorse or Golden Redhorse. Bigger ones around 3-6lbs could be Greater Redhorse and the rare River Redhorse.
In addition, Mooneye could also be found at the dam right now and throughout summer. They are also seen to jump occasionally.
Don't forget the Smallmouth Bass as well.
There could also be some late spawning Steelhead in the river.
Channel Catfish rarely, if ever, jump.
