Delaware River Report / Conditions July 27, 2021

The release from Cannonsville has been dropped again.  The flow at Stilesville is 686 cfs and falling as of 6 am.  There are definitely a lot more wade opportunities now and it’s still decent for floating.  Sulphurs, Isonychias, and olives are still the main mayflies on the water.  Nymphs and streamers put some fish in the net too.  Match your nymph sizes to naturals.  The daytime activity has be in the colder water sections.  We may see a little rain today so hopefully that pushes all of the bugs a little earlier.  Today is going to be warm hitting 87 degrees.  Wind from the North 5 – 10 mph. There will be some isolated thunderstorms but it’s hard to predict if we’ll get hit.  Bring a raincoat.
