Delaware River Report / Conditions October 20, 2021

The flows on the tailwaters remain steady.  Flow on the Beaverkill is now under 500 cfs offering more wade opportunities.  We don’t see any meaningful rain in the 10 day so things should stay like this until they drop the releases.  We’re still seeing olives, Heptagenia, some Isonychias, and caddis.  Today will be back up to 70 degrees with sunshine.  Wind 10 – 15 mph from the North.
