The one bonus from yesterday is now 20 mph winds feel like nothing. It was a tough day but people landed fish. Plus it’s nice to know the worst weather day of the season is now behind us. Most fish came to the net on streamers but a few people found the oddball fish eating on top. The river flows are beginning to drop except for the West Branch. It looks like the release has been increased to mitigate the spill. The Beaverkill is at a good wading level at 572 cfs this morning. The air temp will climb back up close to 60 degrees today and it looks pleasant for the rest of the week. The wind will be 10 – 20 mph from the North but they should drop later in the day.
George and Steve Shen with a nice one yesterday
