The West Branch stayed in decent shape yesterday. There were some sulphurs and olives in the afternoon with some people finding spinners in the evening. We look fine on the West Branch this morning. The level looks fine and wade and float conditions are good. We’ll have sunshine so nymphs and wets would be a good plan for early today. The upper river could still see some daytime hatching. The Beaverkill, lower East Branch, and Mainstem all took a beating and were high and off color by mid afternoon yesterday. They remain high this morning but the levels are falling. They’ll be in much better shape tomorrow morning.
Today will be 71 degrees with plentiful sunshine. Wind will be 10 – 15 mph from the North.
