We finally received some well needed rain and the West Branch is starting to rise! There is currently a light tint to the water, but that will clear up by tomorrow at the latest. Yesterday the river displayed hatches of sulphurs, cahills, epeorus, and of course those miniscule pseudocleon. With no fierce gusts of wind today, we should have a repeat of yesterday with more rising fish.
