The flows are up a bit on the West Branch, East Branch, and Mainstem. There is some runoff in the feeder streams from the snow melt. Both reservoirs are spilling and that also increased from the snow melt. We are floating but are too high to wade. the Beaverkill flow is also up but has peaked and is beginning to fall. It’s also too high to wade but should drop over the next few days. The Willowemoc and feeder streams have the best wade opportunities right now. Yesterday was tough in the wind and rising water. Most people stuck with streamers in the higher flows. Things should settle down today with cloud cover the air temp approaching 60 degrees. Wind will be half of yesterday’s at 5 – 10 from the South.
