The release from Cannonsville has been increased and flow at Stilesville is 658 cfs this morning. If it increases more we’ll do another update. The flow on the lower West and Upper Main will come up a bit throughout the day. The higher release will probably increase the turbidity but that bothers fisherman more than it bothers the fish. Today will be 70 degrees with 6 mph winds from the South. Maybe some gusts up to 10 mph.
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.
