We had a couple of strong thunderstorms move in yesterday afternoon and hit the lower half of the West Branch making it difficult to see rising fish. Up top in Deposit, however, was a different story, heavy numbers of BWO’s which resulted in most of the fish rising and keying in on them. We are expecting more overcast skies and a thunderstorm to roll in this afternoon, so be sure to pack your Olive’s box before venturing out on the water!
