Today will be another sunny day but we have a chance of rain tomorrow. Even if the storms miss us some cloud cover will be nice. Today should fish like the last few with nymphing early and decent mayfly and caddis hatches as the sun drops. Sulphurs and Cahills have been our mainstay aside from the caddis. Some river sections are still seeing March Browns, Gray Fox, Green Drakes, and Brown Drakes. Definitely have your spinner patterns for those bugs ready. Today will be sunny with the air temp peaking at 79 degrees. Wind will be 5 – 10 mph from the South.
The East Branch at Fishs Eddy, the Mainstem at Lordville and the Beaverkill at Cooks Falls peaked around 68 degrees yesterday. It’s time to give these rivers a break until they cool back down.
