The release from Cannonsville has been increased to 882 cfs. Yesterday morning we had some oddball rain storms that were not in the forecast. It wasn’t enough rain to change the flows but the clouds did stick around longer than we expected. The wind was a bit of an issue at times but seemed to calm down in the afternoon. Keep an eye on the slower pools and tail outs with the smaller bwos and heptagenias hatching. The fish are eating and moving in some of these areas so be patient. We’ll be warmer today with the air temp reaching 75 degrees. Wind will not be a factor. The clouds should give way to sunshine this afternoon. We have some fog on the water that should burn off in the next hour or so. The color in the West Branch has not affected the fishing.
