The aqueduct work has been pushed off again. It is now scheduled for Fall of 2024.
We had a few storms pass through yesterday but Homepool is clear and looking good this morning. The flow at Hale Eddy is 970 and falling so wading and floating are options. Even with the higher flow the best bet for daytime sulphurs and olives will be in the coldest water near the dams. Again there is algae up there so nymphing and streamer fishing will be best below Hale Eddy.
The Beaverkill at Cooks Falls, East Branch at Fishs Eddy, and Mainstem at Lordville will peak over 70 degrees today. It’s time to give these sections a break and fish the colder water.
Today will be 89 degrees with clouds in the morning and sunshine in the afternoon. Wind will be 10 – 15 mph from the West.
