Rain and cloud cover yesterday gave us a GREAT day on the West Branch and upper main stem. Bugs were abundant (cornuta, dorthea, isos), and fish were slaughtering any isonychias that came their way. The cooler temps are continuing today, as well as the cloud cover. With the East Branch (and therefore ) the Main Stem clearing even further, we are looking at what could be a banner day!
