Delaware River Report: June 9, 2025
Both reservoirs are still spilling. The release from Cannonsville is 600 cfs. There is over 1,300 cfs spilling. The West Branch flow has leveled off. The rest of the rivers are dropping slowly. We’re at fine levels for floating but the best and safest wading is on the Beaverkill and Willowemoc. The highest water temp is actually in Stilesville due to the spillage. Hopefully the cooler air temps ans cloud cover help cool that down. It will also cool as the amount of water spilling decreases over the next few days. The water temps have pushed the hatches later in the afternoon / evening. We have great weather today with clouds and light rain so that may push some bugs earlier. Streamers and nymphs continue to fish well.
Today will be 66 degrees with clouds and some rain showers in the morning. Total rainfall should be .03″. Wind will be 5 – 10 mph from the South.

Delaware River Report: June 8, 2025
Both reservoirs are still spilling. The release from Cannonsville is 600 cfs. There is over 1,300 cfs spilling. The storms that have been sliding North of us usually don’t matter but since Cannonsville is spilling it’s coming our way today. The West Branch flow at Walton is 4,450 cfs so the spill will increase more today. The spill is generally clear. Wading is not an option on the West Branch today but floating will be fine. The hatches have pushed later in the day due to the warmer water temps from the spill. The afternoon showers may help a bit today. Streamers and nymphs have worked well before the bugs start.
Today will be 76 degrees with clouds and some rain showers in the afternoon. Total rainfall should be .01″. Wind will be 5 – 10 mph from the South.

Delaware River Report: June 7, 2025
Both reservoirs are still spilling. The release from Cannonsville is 600 cfs. There is just under 630 cfs spilling. Most of the heavy storms slid North of us and the rivers look good this morning with just a negligible bump in flows. Today looks like another good day with some possible light showers early, cloud cover, and light wind. We may see some sunshine this afternoon. There is still a wide array of mayflies hatching plus caddis. Sulphurs have been the largest hatch so definitely have that box with you. Nymphs and streamers have been the best bets early.
Today will be 74 degrees with clouds and some rain showers in the morning. Total rainfall should be .04″. Wind will be 5 – 10 mph from the North.

Delaware River Report: June 6, 2025
Both reservoirs are still spilling. The release from Cannonsville is 600 cfs. There is just under 800 cfs spilling. We had a few storms pass through overnight but most seemed to slide North of us. The West Branch flow bumped slightly but it shouldn’t be noticeable this morning. Today’s rain doesn’t look bad and the cloud cover and cooler air temp are welcome. There is a potential for some thunderstorms so keep an eye on the radar. The last few days of bright sun pushed the bugs later in the evening. Today’s clouds may push them back earlier. We’re still seeing good hatches with a wide array of bugs. Definitely have all of your sulphurs.
Today will be 75 degrees with clouds and some rain. Total rainfall should be 1/4″ but there may be some heavier bands pushing through. Wind will be light and variable.

Both reservoirs are still spilling. The release from Cannonsville is 600 cfs. There is just under 719 cfs spilling. There are some spots people wade the West Branch at 1,500 cfs but the best wading is still on the Beaverkill and Willowemoc. Yesterday was very bright and very warm. Today looks similar although we may see some clouds in the afternoon if the thunderstorms or stray showers come through. Nymphing or wet flies will be the best bets during the day. The hatches may be later in the day / evening due to the weather. And it could be a good night for spinners. We;e still seeing a large array of bugs out there so have everything with you just in case.
Today will be 84 degrees with sun and clouds mixed. There is a slight chance of an afternoon thunderstorm or stray shower. Wind will be light and variable.

Both reservoirs are still spilling. The release from Cannonsville is 600 cfs. There is just under 800 cfs spilling. The Beaverkill has dropped quite a bit so there are lots of wade opportunities there and on the Willowemoc. The tailwaters and Mainstem are dropping slowly and still best fished from a boat. The sun may push the hatches a little later in the afternoon but it may also get some caddis active early in the day. If the caddis stay on the bushes nymphs and streamers should work well until the bugs come. It’s till a big mix of bug hatching so carry a lot of flies. And keep an eye out for spinners in the evening.
Today will be 86 degrees with sun. Wind will be 5 – 10 mph from the South.

The rivers look good this morning and the tailwaters are at great levels for floating but not for wading yet. The Beaverkill and Willowemoc have wade opportunities and also look good. The hatches have been good with a mix of sulphurs, March Brown, Gray Fox, Cahills,olives, and tan caddis. Some river sections had massive hatches of Dark Blue Sedges (Psilotreta sp) last night. The kind that sounds like rain hitting your windshield. There shouldn’t be any wind today.

The Beaverkill is dropping nicely and should offer some wade spots in the next day or two. The West Branch is in good shape this morning with good visibility. Fish were eating yesterday. We have a mix of March Browns, Gray Fox, Sulphurs, Isonychias, Light Cahills, and some Green Drakes on the water. Streamers are working well in the mornings before the hatches. We’ll have more sun today but less wind.

Both reservoirs are spilling again. The release from Cannonsville is 600 cfs. There is 410 cfs spilling. The spill will increase quite a bit today. The West is high with color but it is fishable from a boat. There are no safe wading options in the system today. It looks like a decent streamer day and there will be bugs in the afternoon. Just find a spot where the fish can set up to eat and be patient. We had decent hatches yesterday while the flows were climbing so there is a possibility. It was just tough to find fish on them.
Today will be 59 degrees with a few morning showers. Wind will be 10 – 15 mph from the North.

We have a steady rain falling that started overnight. The river flows are bumping and some of the feeders are putting some color in to the main rivers. Click on the river gauge links below and watch the radar for the latest information. So this looks like a nymph and streamer day. If the afternoon showers are sparse enough after the main rain ends there may be some hatches if the rivers stay in good shape. But count on streamers and nymphs. If the flows or conditions change dramatically we’ll do an updated post.
Today will be 56 degrees with steady rain this morning and showers in the afternoon. Total rainfall should be .66″. Wind will be 10 – 20 mph from the North.

The release from Cannonsville is 600 cfs. It looks like we have stopped spilling. We’re looking at another cloudy day with low wind. That should be good for the hatches hopefully pushing them a little earlier in the afternoon. We’re still seeing a great mix of bugs with March Browns, Gray Fox, Sulphurs, Cahills, olives, some Green Drakes, and caddis. It looks like the rain will hold off until dark. We’re seeing varying amounts forecasted so keep an eye on the radar and river gauges tomorrow.
Today will be 72 degrees with an early mix of clouds and sun turning overcast in the afternoon. There is a slight chance of a rain shower. Wind will be 5 – 10 mph from the West.

The release from Cannonsville is 600 cfs with 53 cfs spilling over the top. The Cannonsville spill is coming to an end so the West Branch is at a great level for both floating and wading. Today looks like another good day with decent cloud cover and low wind. Sulphurs, cahills, March Browns, Gray Fox, some Green Drakes, olives, tan caddis, and dark grannoms are all out there. Fishing has been good with nymphs and streamers early followed by the afternoon hatches. There have been spinner falls on some nights so don’t get off the river too early.
Today will be 69 degrees and overcast. Wind will be 5 – 10 mph from the South.
