The release from Cannonsville is 500 cfs. A few storms moved beginning yesterday evening and the flows bumped a bit. The West Branch is at 663 cfs and dropping so we’re still at a good level for floating and wading. Clarity is fine out front. We may see some additional storms this afternoon so keep an eye on the radar. The fishing has stayed relatively consistent with the summer sulphurs hatching midday in Deposit. There are some olives mixed in plus a few Isonychias and Cahills. Stick to the lower West if you want to nymph. The algae has been bad up top making it a dry fly only game.
Today will be 86 degrees with clouds in the morning and scattered thunderstorms in the afternoon. Wind will be light and variable.
What’s Hatching:
Dark Blue Wing Olive – #16 – 18 – Baetis vagans
Sulphur – 16 – 20 – Ephemerella dorothea
Tan Caddis – #16 – 20 – Hydrosyche sp
Light Cahill – #14 – Epeorus vitreus, Ephemerella invaria, Stenacron spp.
Slate Drake – #12-2xl – 12 – Isonychia bicolor
