Today is supposed to be mostly sunny with a high of 88 degrees. Yesterday was a great day to be on the river. Flying ants were out again in force during the afternoon and they had the river fishing very well yesterday. With conditions almost identical to yesterday, there is a good possibility they will once again produce great fishing action for today. Other than ants, BWO’s will likely be your primary hatch for the day on the West Branch as the Upper Main could see excellent white fly and/or iso’s this evening.
