There was another bigger pulse of cold water out of Cannonsville overnight. There was no pulse from Pepacton on the East Branch. This larger pulse seems to be helping keep downriver a bit cooler than it was earlier in the week.
Today will be another hot, sunny day. There are some thunderstorms forecast for the evening and overnight that will bring us some lower air temps. While it’s still hot out, look for rising fish in the coldest water. Have that olive box handy, as well as your sulphurs, some large Cahills and Isos.
The East Branch at Fishs Eddy, the Beaverkill at Cooks Falls, and the Mainstem at Lordville all peaked over 70 degrees yesterday. Give these sections a break until we get cooler temps.
