The release from Cannonsville has been increased to 1,097. We woke up to some light, steady rain this morning but so far we’ve received less than was forecasted. We had about 1/4″ overnight and today’s precip forecast has been dropped to less than 1/2″. If the rain comes over the course of the day there is a chance of olives. Streamers will be your best bet starting off but take the time to watch the tailouts of long pools. The increased release will add a bit more color to the river but not enough to turn the fish off. If the rain picks up and turns the river off color we’ll do a mid day update. We have a little more rain in the forecast tomorrow then we look pretty clear through the weekend.
