The release from Cannonsville has been increases a bit and the flow at Hale Eddy is 540 cfs this morning. Everything looks good for the weekend. Today will be 79 degrees with some sunshine. Wind should not be a factor at 5 – 7 mph from the South. Yesterday fished well most of the day with a mix of caddis and olives early joined by some hebes late in the afternoon. Some people are finding fish on isonychias and still a few flying ants.

There is some color in the West Branch from the release. The cloudiness will increase if they raise the release. It happens every Fall when the reservoir begins to turn over.
