The release from Cannonsville was increased slightly to 560 cfs. The micromanaging of the release is due to the Montague Flow Target in the FFMP. The cooler air temps have helped the water temps. The bright sun has pushed a lot of the hatching to later in the afternoon with some people finding a little midday action in spots. Nymphing is the best bet during the day but keep an eye out for sporadic risers. Sulphurs, Light Cahills, March Browns, cornutas and Green Drakes are hatching. Dark Blue Sedges #14 are out in the evening (Psilotreta sp.). The wind has been unkind so try to find some protected areas. The hourly forecast shows the wind dropping in the evening.
Today will hit 74 degrees with a mix of sunshine. Wind will be 10 -20 mph from the North.
