Delaware River Report / Conditions September 12, 2011

The water keeps clearing and falling, and as such the fishing should start to pick up again soon! That being said, had an excellent day yesterday throwing streamers with two friends – here’s a result:

Kenny Turano with a BIG West Branch Brown. The third of three monsters he caught over two days.

Kenny with his first fish of the day - a big fat female!
