Delaware River Report: June 24, 2026

The release from Cannonsville is 500 cfs. The clouds stuck around for a while yesterday with the sun popping out in the afternoon. Today we’re starting with sun and keeping it all day. Nymphing or swinging wets will be the best bets early. Blind casting Isonychias or Cahills through the riffles could work too. Add a small dropper to up your chances. The hatches have been a mix of sulphurs, Cahills, Isonychias, olives, and some caddis. The sulphurs have been the main hatch still. Spinners have been around in the early mornings and evenings.

Today will be 75 degrees with sunshine and few clouds. Wind will be 10 – 15 mph from the North.
