The release from Cannonsville has been dropped to 730 cfs. We did have some rain overnight but it did little to the flows and mostly soaked into the ground. We have some clouds hanging on this morning but more sun will break through by the afternoon. The air temp will hit the high 60’s today. Wind will be out of the North 10 – 15 mph. The wind was a little stronger yesterday than they predicted but it seemed to drop in the evening. Olives, isonychias, and heptagenia should cover most of your needs. A few ants, caddis, and yellow sallies would be good to have too. Nymphing or swinging wets have been good techniques to land some fish until the hatches start. Match the size of the naturals with your nymphs.
