Delaware River Report / Condtions October 10, 2011

Happy Columbus Day! I hope some of you are able to get a day out on the water instead of in the office today! Yesterday, the fiberglass hatch (read: boat) was in full swing on the lower West, Lower East, and Main Stem as plenty of folks were taking advantage of the unprecedented Indian Summer we are having. There were isos and some small stenos about, and psuedos later on in the day once the sun got a bit lower. We are expecting another beautiful day here, so hopefully we’ll see a carbon-copy of yesterday!
