Delaware River Report / Conditions September 1, 2020

We woke up to an overcast sky and light rain at 6 this morning.  Wind will be 2 – 5 mph from the South.  The rain won’t amount to anything and the air temp will be 73 degrees.  Pretty much sounds like an awesome day to start September.  It will probably fish best with nymphs and wets early but it the weather holds there’s a good shot at some olives mixed with a few isonychias in the afternoon.  Water levels and temps are pretty much the same as yesterday.
