We have a light mist coming down this morning. We’ll see a bit of sun mixed with the clouds early but the cloud cover should increase as the day goes on. Total rainfall should be .02″ with wind from the West 5 – 10 mph. If Wunderground is calling this right we should have a good day on the water. They did not call it right yesterday and the sun broke through in the afternoon. Olives, sulphurs, and few isonychias. We’re still counting on some decent flying ants soon but it doesn’t hurt to throw them now on tough fish.
Water temps are hot on the Beaverkill at Cooks Falls, the East Branch at Fishs Eddy, and the Mainstem at Lordville. Give the fish a break in those areas and fish colder water.
