Some sections of river had a decent fall of flying ants last night. Very small ants but some got on them in the flat water. They were mixed with the small olives as the sun dropped. We also saw a handful of steno / cahills and a few Isonychias. We’re seeing some tricos out there in the mornings. We haven’t had great reports on them yet but it’s worth having a few in your box. The release from Cannonsville stayed steady overnight at a reasonable 650 cfs. Good for wading and floating. Today will be a bit warmer hitting 85 degrees with sunshine. Wind will be light and variable.
The Mainstem at Lordville, the East Branch at Fishs Eddy and the Beaverkill at Cooks Falls all peaked over 70 degrees yesterday. Give these sections a break until we get cooler temps.
