Yesterdays rain did add a little water to the system but all the rivers remain wadeable and in decent shape this morning. It looks like the flows at Hale Eddy and Fishs Eddy have leveled off and should be dropping during the day. The wind made fishing tough yesterday and traffic was light but some people braved it and were rewarded with some fish rising to Pseudos in the afternoon. The weather looks decent today with highs in the high 50s to low 60s. Hopefully Accuweather is wrong about the wind today. We have a bit of a warming trend moving in over the weekend that looks great for the end of October.
