Delaware River Report: June 14, 2026

The release from Cannonsville is 500 cfs. Cahills, olives, and caddis are all around in some numbers. The sulphurs have been decent on some river sections in the evening and have even surprised us earlier in the day a few times this week. Nymphing or swinging wets have been the best bets during the day. Blind casting Isonychias or Cahills in the riffles could put a few fish in the net. We may see an Isolated shower today but the best chance of rain comes overnight.

The Mainstem, the East Branch in Hancock, and the Beaverkill at Cooks Falls all peaked over 70 degrees again yesterday. It’s time to give these river sections a break until we cool back down.

Today will be 82 degrees with a mix of clouds and sun. Wind will be 10 – 15 mph from the South.
