The Delaware River Club: Upper Delaware River Report 9/28/10

There are overcast skies this morning with a faint rain for now.  Sporadic thunderstorms are possible throughout the day with the rain picking up by the afternoon.  The rivers are no longer accessible by drift boat for now with the diminutive releases they are letting out currently, but lower levels are providing many more wading opportunities.  Yesterday small Olives had some fish up and rising and we suspect there will be more of the same on a day like today.
