The wind blew again yesterday but the river fished well in between the gusts. There were some fish rising in protected areas to a mix of Blue Quills and Quill Gordons. Unfortunately there were not too many areas protected from the wind. The fish have definitely turned on to streamers and that seemed to be the best answer with the weather. Today looks much better with highs in the 60s and some wind, but not anything like we just experienced over the last two days. The release from Cannonsville is currently 1,499 cfs.
Fish are still eating in the wind!
