Yesterday we saw a lot of caddis, a few hendricksons, and a few hendrickson spinners. Other river sections are seeing caddis and the start of the march browns. The wind was not helpful at times but the fish were up and would eat. Overall it was a nice day on the river with decent fishing. Hard to complain about that. Today looks like a similar weather day with a little more sunshine. The air temp will hit 68 degrees with wind 10 – 15 from the East. The release from Cannonsville has been dropped slightly to 872 cfs.
