The release from Cannonsville is 500 cfs. This week will be hot and sunny. Stay out of the midday sun and go out early in the morning before the fog burns off. Or wait until the sun hides behind the hills in the evening. Be mindful of the water temps in some sections if you’re targeting trout. We’re still seeing sulphurs, Cahills, Isonychias, olives, and some caddis out on the water.

Today will be 87 degrees and sunny. Wind will be light.

Delaware River Report: June 26, 2026

The release from Cannonsville is 500 cfs. We had some rain in the evening that was heavy for an hour or so. The West Branch got most of the rain but the levels are dropping and safe to wade. There’s a little color in the system but that should clear quickly. If the clouds stick around today, we could see hatching mid day. Bring all your summer favorites: sulphurs, Cahills, Isonychias, olives, and some caddis.

Today will be 81 degrees and cloudy. Wind will be 5 – 10 mph from the West.

Delaware River Report: June 24, 2026

The release from Cannonsville is 500 cfs. The clouds stuck around for a while yesterday with the sun popping out in the afternoon. Today we’re starting with sun and keeping it all day. Nymphing or swinging wets will be the best bets early. Blind casting Isonychias or Cahills through the riffles could work too. Add a small dropper to up your chances. The hatches have been a mix of sulphurs, Cahills, Isonychias, olives, and some caddis. The sulphurs have been the main hatch still. Spinners have been around in the early mornings and evenings.

Today will be 75 degrees with sunshine and few clouds. Wind will be 10 – 15 mph from the North.

The release from Cannonsville is 500 cfs. The forecast changes everytime we check. This morning they are calling for .81″ of rain.

The hatches have been a mix of sulphurs, Cahills, Isonychias, olives, and some caddis. If we get some color in the water it could turn out to be a decent streamer afternoon.

Today will be 64 degrees with clouds and periods of rain. Wind will be 10 – 15 mph from the South.

Delaware River Report: June 21, 2026

The release from Cannonsville is 500 cfs. We’ll have less wind today but we’re keeping the sun. Nymphing or swinging wets will probably be the best bets during the day. Blind casting Isonychias or Cahills in the riffles could payoff early even dry dropper rigs. The evening hatches have been a mix of sulphurs, Cahills, Isonychias, olives, and some caddis but the sulphurs have been the main bug the last few nights. If you can stay late for the hatches stay late.

Today will be 77 degrees with mix of sunshine and clouds. Wind will be 5 – 10 mph from the North.

The release from Cannonsville is 500 cfs. A little light rain is falling this morning but it won’t be enough to affect the flows. We’ll have some sun and wind to deal with but the wind drops in the afternoon / evening. The sulphurs and Isonychias were decent yesterday afternoon but the fish didn’t get really happy until the sun dropped. Cahills, olives, and some tan caddis are around too. Nymphing or swinging wets have been the best bets during the day. Blind casting Isonychias or Cahills in the riffles would also be good bets.

Today will be 81 degrees with some light rain possible in the morning becoming partly cloudy in the afternoon. Wind will be 20 – 30 mph from the South.
