Delaware River Club: Upper Delaware River Report 9/29/2010

Today they are calling for mostly cloudy skies and a high of 71º. River levels are still low due to the release from Cannonsville Reservoir which is still 114 cfs. Water temperatures are still looking good the entire length of the West Branch, East Branch, and Main Stem. With these low water levels wading is going to be your best option, try nymphing faster moving water while keeping an eye out for targets feeding on olives or caddis.
