Yesterday was bright and sunny so there were fish early and late. Midday we had some caddis but most mayfly activity was in low light. The sun is already out this morning so we’re looking at similar conditions today. We’ll hit 85 degrees with 5 – 10 mph wind from the South. There are a lot of different bugs on the water now with a few species of caddis, march browns, gray fox, sulphurs, cahills, brown drakes, and green drakes. It seems like most fish are being landed on caddis.
The Mainstem at Lordville, East Branch at Fishs Eddy and Beaverkill at Cooks Falls all have the potential to hit 70 degrees today. Check the water temps with your thermometers this afternoon.
