River Report / Conditions April 3, 2011

Bright sun at the shop this morning, hopefully it will help warm the water up a little bit. We are expecting rain tonight, up to 1.8 inches – it could make Cannonsville spill, which means more alewives in the river! As for bugs, we have reports still of little black stoneflies, and some Chimmara caddis flying around. As temps increase, we expect to see more of those along with our first mayflies of the year!
