This morning is cloudy, but we are supposed to have bright sun and a high of 74 this afternoon. With the water levels dropping, the river should warm up a little quicker and the hatches should begin by early to mid afternoon. We will continue to see #14 Isos, #18-24 dark olives/pseudocloeon, and #14-16 stenos. The release from Cannonsville is 840 cfs, so the West Branch is becoming more wadable and will have slower pools for the fish to rise in. We should begin to see better hatches on the West now that the water will stay warmer.
Another rainbow to the net!
