Yesterday was another day of streamers and some nymphs early followed by some late afternoon / evening dry fly fishing. We’re catching most of our fish on small olives but you will see some Isonychias, iso spinners, Heptagenia, a few cahills, and some caddis. But definitely have an olive tied on first. Today will start off sunny but we should see some clouds roll in during the afternoon. Maybe a few showers. Luckily the wind should not be a factor. The tailwater releases are keeping the East and West Branches high. It’s good for floating but wading is not recommended. The Beaverkill and Willowemoc have the best wade opportunities at this time.
Bruce, Mike, and Daniel found some fish eating olives last night
