The release from Cannonsville was increased again this morning to 1,366 cfs. We had some light showers overnight that are ending this morning. Winds will be upa bit today and should drop by the evening. The clouds should hang around most of the day. Overall it looks like a good day to go swing some streamers and look for afternoon olives. Streamers were the best bet yesterday but people did have decent dry fly activity on cahills, olives, and flying ants. Nymphing has bee decent when the sun is not beating on the water.
