Upstream of 54 it's fast but crossable in places. For whites look for deep, slow water and bead heads will work fine for them.

Picked up some Browns on a streamer as well as whites on a nymph upstream from the bridge on HWY 54 last weekend. You really have to pick your crossings though - river was at 13m3/sec when we were there and now it's at 20m3/sec
