2 PM update. We’ve had some heavy rain over the last few hours. Click on the links below to get the most up to date flow information.
We had some rain overnight and there is a light rain falling this morning. The Beaverkill flow is climbing so the East Branch flow will go up too. Oquaga Creek is rising slowly and is only 28 cfs this morning. We have close to 1″ of rain in the forecast. If that hits and the flows change dramatically during the day we’ll do a report update. Yesterday was a good day on the water with streamer and nymphs early followed by dry fly fishing in the evening. We mostly saw Pseudos hatching but there were a lot of caddis in the bushes and a few Isonychias. The East and West Branches are still too high to wade. The feeder streams and upper reaches of the Beaverkill and Willowemoc are your best bets. The West Branch has the normal Fall tint to it but it doesn’t hamper the fishing at all.
