The West Branch and East Branch have dropped a little more overnight but are still too high to wade. The Beaverkill and Willowemoc are finally hitting nice wade levels. Nymphing and streamers are your best bet but there are some rising fish in the afternoons. It’s hard to count on yet but we are finding some. It’s still mostly stoneflies and little black caddis. Hopefully the water continues to drop and warms up a bit pushing the olives.
Today will look a lot like yesterday hitting 55 degrees with sunshine. Wind will be 5 – 10 mph from the North. The 10 day forecast looks great with warm air temps and no rain until Sunday. That should definitely help the fishing this week.
What’s Hatching:
Tiny Black Stonefly – #18 – Capniidae sp..
Little Black and Brown Stoneflies – #14 – 16 – Taeniopteryx sp..
Little Black Caddis – #18 – 20 – Chimarra sp.
