Delaware River Report / Conditions October 12, 2020

They are counting on the rain and downstream releases to meet the flow targets so the release from Cannonsville has been dropped again.  The flow at Stilesville is 165 cfs this morning.  We had some rain overnight and should receive more throughout the day.  So far nothing heavy and the river flows haven’t bumped at all as of 6:30 am.  We’ll have wind again today as the front pushes through.  16 mph from the South.  We’ve had some days where the wind comes and goes and gives us enough calm weather to get the fish eating on top.  Hopefully it’s like that today.

 

There is some color in the West Branch from the release.  The cloudiness will increase if they raise the release.  It happens every Fall when the reservoir begins to turn over.
