Delaware River Update and Conditions 7/14/2011

Lots of bugs on the water last night after a day of mixed clouds and sun.  The weather has cooled down a bit making it more comfortable on the water.  Keep an eye out for risers on shade banks and riffles.  Looks like bright sunshine today, but fishing should turn on towards evening.
