The Delware River Club: Upper Delaware River Report 9/2/10

Today, the skies should be partly cloudy with a high of 85 degrees. The West Branch this morning will be slightly on the rise due to an increase in the release early today. Flying ants and caddis make up the mid day dry fly action, with some olives in the evening as well. There could be a decent streamer bite this morning with the rising levels. Conditions currently, are great for both wade and drift boat fishermen, and they should continue to improve.
