It looks like both Cannonsville and Pepacton Reservoirs are spilling. Both gauges show the respective spillovers have peaked and both rivers are beginning to drop a bit. It will be a slow drop even if we don’t get additional rain. The feeder creeks are pushing a fair amount of water. The Beaverkill and Willowemoc are at great wade levels. Today looks like a good day to be on the water with the air temp close to 70, wind 10 – 15 mph from the West, and some cloud cover. The wind is normal for this Spring and we have a 40% chance of some rain. The projected rainfall is less than 1/10″ so it shouldn’t have any effect on the rivers. Everything should fish better than yesterday
