The release from Cannonsville has been dropped to 741 cfs until further notice. We are not sure when it will change again or what direction that change will be but right now it looks decent for floating and wading. It’s going to come down to downstream flow targets and potential releases from Lake Wallenpaupack and Rio Reservoir. Olives and cahills are still the main hatches followed by isonychias and flying ants. If you see the hatches and no fish move around a bit and check other areas. The drop in flow on the West Branch may help the dry fly fishing offering the fish more soft water rise in. It is still high enough that streamers may work well. Nymphing should also improve as the river drops.
and back down. The release is 781cfs this morning
