Delaware River Conditions / Update 5/12/2011

Wading is now a possibility on some sections of the system.  The forecast is calling for a high of 76 with sun today.  Look for risers in the shade during the day and most of the top water action towards evening well into dark.  Nymphing or swinging wets in the riffles should produce some fish during the day.
