Today is going to feel like Summer out there. 50 degrees, sun, and winds around 10 mph. It did not snow this morning. It looks like we’ll have temps in the 50’s all week. The East Branch and Beaverkill flows are dropping. The flow on the West Branch has come up due to the increased amount of water spilling. The water temperatures are still a bit cold throughout the system but a few days of warm air and sun beating down should help them climb. The dry fly action will get better and better as the temps rise. Starting off with streamers or nymphs is still your best bet. The release from Cannonsville will increase in steps today and settle in at 1.499 cfs at 3 pm.
