Delaware River Report / Conditions November 7, 2017

We had a little more rain yesterday than initially forecasted.  The rivers bumped slightly but not enough to notice.  They did have the wind forecast correct.  Once the rain stopped it was 10 to 15 mph gusts for most of the afternoon.  It was definitely a good day to fish underneath nymphing or throwing streamers.  It’s definitely cooler this morning but should warm up to the mid 40’s today.  the winds will be kinder only gusting from 5 – 10 mph.  It may be another nymphing / streamer day but bring the small olives and caddis too.

Slate Drake #14 – Isonychia bicolor
Little BWO – #22 – 26- Pseudocloeon sp.
Blue Wing Olives – #18 – 20 – Baetis sp.
