It’s not supposed to rain today. The rivers have leveled off but remain high. Both reservoirs are spilling and floating is the best and only option. We had a few thunderstorms overnight but the feeder streams are dropping. Wading is only an option on the small head water streams. The Beaverkill and Willowemoc should drop first but will still need a few days to be safe to wade. We’re on a warming trend again so we should see the Hendrickson, blue quill, and blue wing olives hatches pick up again this week. Streamers will be the best bet early today but some of the water temps are looking good this morning and should peak at decent levels due to the sunshine and warmer air temp.
Today will be 64 degrees with a mix of sun and clouds. Wind will be 10 – 15 mph from the North.
