Upper Delaware River Report — June 19, 2010

Today, like yesterday, the sun will be out for most of the day.  Fishing for today should be better in the morning and towards dark, you can try nymphing or throwing streamers during the hot parts of the day if you are not seeing any rises. Yesterday there was decent action up and down the West Branch on Sulphurs and Blue Winged Olives during the day.  Today I would expect Sulphurs, BWO’s and Caddis during the day today.  Towards dark try swinging a large stonefly stimulator pattern through riffs or towards the banks.  Flows are holding steady through the day but the temps are slowly rising due to the bright sun and warm air temps.
