Yesterday fishing was good on the Upper West Branch. Many fish were caught on nymphs but there were good fish taken on drys as well. Today’s forecast shows bright sun all day, with little chance of rain. However, with the cooler water there should be consistent bug activity throughout most of the day. Yesterday evening brought a great Sulphur hatch, as well as Olives, Isos and a good number of Caddis were spotted as well. Today should bring much of the same, and should be a good overall day for being out on the water.
