Let’s keep the local pictures going. Since everyone should be fishing local to their homes send us pictures of your locally caught fish and we’ll put them here on the blog. Even chubs would be cool. Email them to flyfish@thedelawareriverclub.com
Today’s selection of fish:
Chris come through with the first local striper on the blog!
Art claims he landed this just West of Philly this week. Not so sure we’re buying that!
Yesterday was pleasant but windy up here. We had enough warmth and sunshine to bump the water temps up a couple degrees so we’re starting off a little better this morning. Most of the flows went up a negligible amount from runoff but should start to drop back today. We should see a mix of sun and clouds today peaking around 53 degrees. Wind will be 5 – 10 mph from the North. That sounds good compared to the wind we’ve been dealing with lately. It looks like we have a relatively cool week coming up with a bit of rain towards the weekend.
