Delaware River Report / Conditions September 7, 2016

The release from Cannonsville has been raised again to meet the downstream flow targets.  The current release is from Cannonsville is 1,245 cfs.  It would be nice if they spread some of the directed release out to Pepacton and throw the East Branch a bone of a few hundred cfs.  If you fish the upper Main definitely carry white flies and caddis.  If you are on the West Branch carry light cahills and some sulphurs.  Everywhere you fish today carry blue winged olives and flying ants.  The forecast is mid 80 air temperatures, partly cloudy, and light to moderate winds (under 10 mph).  We will be warm for the next few days and air temps should drop back early next week.

You do not need a 16 – 20 foot leader with multiple feet of tippet to catch fish on the West Branch in the Summer.  What you need is a really great presentation.  Stop by the DRC this Saturday morning between 9 and 12 for a free Summer Clinic.  We’ll cover casting techniques, leaders, flies, and hatches.  Frank Audino will be giving fly tying demonstrations so bring your vise if you want to pick up some techniques.  Send us an email at flyfish@thedelawareriverclub.com and let us know if you are coming.

The release from Cannonsville has been increased to 1,041 cfs this morning.  The increased flow has not hit Lordville yet so expect the Mainstem to increase another 300 – 400 cfs today.  The increased release is most likely due to meeting the Montague flow target.  We should keep the higher water until they release again from Rio and Lake Wallenpaupack-  if they do.  The weather looks good today with high air temperatures in the low 80’s and winds gusting to 10 mph and then dropping in the evening.  We had mixed results dry fly fishing yesterday but most people seemed to find some fish eating throughout the river.  Nymphing was still the best bet during the bright sun.  Cahills and small olives are the most common hatches right now.  If you venture onto the upper Mainstem definitely have a few white flies in your box just in case.

Today is looking like it will end up a mirror image of yesterday.  Partly cloudy and a little cooler.  The flows are still around 800 cfs on the West Branch.  Some sections are good for wading and the entire river is good for floating.  The Mainstem water temperatures stayed in decent shape down to Lordville.  The hatching still seems off but there were a few fish landed.  You definitely have to make the most of the opportunities you get.  Most of the fish landed on dry flies yesterday came on small olives or light cahills.

The release from Cannonsville is steady around 800 cfs.  The abrupt rise in flow and drop in temperature made fishing tough yesterday.  There were a few bugs on the water but the fish were hesitant to rise.  Either the increased water volume had the fish looking for a new home or the drop in water temperature shut them down.  Hopefully everything has settled down to the new flow and temperature and we’ll see some more activity today.  Olives and cahills have been the mainstay over the last couple of days with a few sulphurs and isonychias mixed in.  We are seeing tricos in the air but you’ll have to find a long flat pool to find fish at this flow.  Definitely carry your flying ants.  If you venture on to the first few miles of the upper main carry some white flies with you.

Delaware River Report / Conditions September 2, 2016

After having a steady release of 500 cfs for most of the Summer a lot of us were wondering when something crazy would happen.  The release was cut to 400 cfs yesterday due to a change in the FFMP charts.  This morning the release from Cannonsville was increased to 795 cfs. This is likely due to the downstream flow targets.  Our best guess is that they are not going to run water out of Lake Wallenpaupack this weekend and the recent rains missed us dropping the flow in Montague, NJ.  At some point we will likely be cut back to 400 cfs when they start to release downriver again.  Hopefully they will step it down gradually when the time comes rather than drop us 50% in one shot.  Dropping the release 24 hours before they increase the release seems a bit crazy but I’m sure they will say they had to run the releases that way due to the FFMP.  If that’s the case then the Flexible Flow Management Plan isn’t all that damn flexible.

Nymphing will be tough today since the increased release probably knocked a bunch of the slime loose.  Streamers may productive but check your fly often.  The hatches should still come off on the upper West Branch. The water temperature change will be less dramatic closer to the dam.  The lower West could go either way today. If the water temps drop quickly it may shut the bugs down initially but then we may see increased daytime hatching as the cooler temps level out. Tomorrow everything should settle in and offer decent fishing provided the higher release continues.

Update:  The current release from Cannonsville is 400 cfs under the FFMP Table 4F

September 1st and we still have a release of 500 cfs from Cannonsville.  We have a cloudy sky and cooler air temperatures.  There is a slight chance of showers this morning but nothing major in the forecast.  Winds will pick up mid day to around 10 mph but will drop back down as the evening approaches.  We had decent olive hatches on the West Branch last night mixed with a few sulphurs and cahills.  The fish were rising but very picky on size and pattern.   Definitely carry some low profile olives in #20 -24.  Flying ants are still a good bet when the fish reject your imitation.

There were a few clouds around yesterday afternoon but we did have our share of sun.  There were enough olives, small sulphurs, cahills, and flying ants to get some fish rising.  Flying ants have become very important over the last few days so definitely carry some in #18 – 22.  There have been some tricos in the morning.  If you see good numbers of them on the water and no fish move to another spot.  We are finding them eating in some pools and not others.  The weather looks great today with good cloud cover with a chance of light rain or storms.  Winds will be low around 6 mph.  It looks like the best chance of rain is overnight but the forecast is for negligible amounts.  We already have the clouds this morning so things are looking good for a decent olive hatch.

Despite the sun yesterday people did find rising fish.  The fly of the evening ended up being a #14 cahill.  There were small sulphurs, small olives, and a few golden drakes but the fish were happy eating the cahills.  It’s nice to finally see some fish eat flies bigger than a #20.  Today loos good with low winds around 3 mph with some clouds moving in during the day.  We may even get some rain tomorrow afternoon.  The cooler nights have kicked in and we should be in for cooler daytime temperatures through the weekend.  While the mainstem is still to warm for trout the smallmouth fishing has been decent on small minnow patterns and crayfish imitations.

We should have a little cooler weather today with air temps in the high 70’s.  Wind gusts will be around 10 mph but should drop back in the evening.  It looks the forecast is changing every couple of hours but right now our best chance for light rain and cloud cover is Wednesday.  Keep the normal patterns with you to cover olives, small sulphurs, cahills, and golden drakes.  Isnonichias have been around but we have not seen a heavy hatch of them.  Do not go to the river without flying ant patterns.  We are seeing decent numbers of them in the afternoon.  The flows remain steady with the best temperatures on the West Branch and upper East Branch.  Both the lower East Branch and Mainstem are starting off at 69 degrees this morning  so they are in decent shape for smallmouth fishing but not for trout.

The forecast is calling for another clear day with winds gusting to 9 mph.  The river should fish similar to yesterday.   The best dry fly action is still on the upper West Branch above Hal Eddy. We are still seeing a mix of olives, sulphurs, golden drakes, cahills, and a few isonychias.  The hatches have been a bit sporadic and sometimes later in the day but generally patience has paid off.  The lower West Branch has had some activity but mostly when the sun drops in the evening.  The lower West is the place to be if you want to nymph due to the green slime in Deposit.  Nymphing has been best before the sun hits the water but some people are finding productive riffles during the day.  Move around if you’re not getting any action.

The bright sun held some of the hatching back but when the bugs finally came the fish were rising.  We’re still fishing a decent mix of sulphurs, blue winged olives, cahills, isonychias, and the occasional golden drake.  The cahill hatch has been decent over the last couple of days.  They are not coming off real heavy but there are enough of them to get the fish rising.  It’s been nice to throw a #14 fly for a change.  If they reject the big flies go right back to the #20 – 24 flies.  We’re in for another sunny day with no chance of rain.  The winds will be real low staying below 5 mph.  We’re expecting the river to fish exactly like it did yesterday.
