Delaware River Report: July 14, 2026

They pulsed Cannonsville up to 900 cfs again last night but it is already dropping back to 500 cfs. Today is going to be hot. Fish early or late and avoid the midday heat if possible. Sulphurs, Cahills, Isonychias, olives, and some caddis are all out on the water. There are some tiny olives mixed with the sulphurs in Deposit so keep an eye out for those. Blind casting Cahills and Isonychias can be effective when there isn’t a hatch.

Today will be 95 degrees with abundant sunshine. Wind will be 10 – 15 mph from the West.
