Delaware River Report / Conditions July 11, 2015

The reservoirs have stopped spilling and the release has been stepped down to 700 cfs. This should make the West Branch good for both floating and wading today. Overall, the Upper Delaware is in good shape with clear water. The sun will be out today, look for trout rising in the shade.
