The last two days of warm weather have done wonders for the system and we are beginning to see signs of life. There was a large number of early stoneflies around yesterday with a few fish sporadically looking up but the fish seemed to have turned on a bit to the streamers and nymphs. The West Branch at the 191 bridge peaked at 49 degrees yesterday and this morning the whole system is warmer than we’ve been all season. Cannonsville is at 91.6% capacity with an inflow from the West Branch at Walton of 2,100 cfs. It finally feels like Spring!
