The East Branch flow at Harvard has come down quite a bit and is 684 cfs. The Beaverkill at Cooks Falls is 715 cfs. There are definitely more wade opportunities opening up. The West Branch flow is dropping slowly and sits just over 2,000 cfs this morning. There is no significant rain in the 10 day forecast so the river flows should continue to fall over the next week. Yesterday was a nice day to be on the water but today looks even better. We have frost this morning but will hit 68 degrees this afternoon. Sunshine with wind 5 – 10 from the North. The bugs hatching differ from river section to section but definitely carry hendricksons, march browns, olives, and a wide range of caddis patterns.
