The Cannonsville release has been increased to 400 cfs this morning. The rivers are dropping and beginning to clear but there is still some color in the water. There were some bugs out yesterday, a few sulphurs, cahills, and isonychias. Most of the fish caught yesterday were on streamers but there were some targets. Nymphing is still best above Oquaga Creek where it is clear and low. We are looking at warm air temps and sun today but hopefully the storms forecasted to hit us over the next few day work out and continue to fill the reservoirs.
