Today will be another sunny hot one. Nymphing or swinging wets will be good options early. The evening should bring decent caddis again and the sulphurs towards dark. There will be a mix of cahills, March Browns, and Gray Fox. Those have been a bit sporadic but that can make them good searching patterns. We should get a 10 degree drop in air temp tomorrow with a possible bit of rain overnight.
Both the East Branch at Fishs Eddy and the Mainstem at Lordville hit 69 degrees yesterday so it’s time to give those rivers a break until they cool back down.
Today will be 88 degrees with sunny to partly cloudy skies. There is a slight chance of an afternoon thunderstorm or shower. Wind will be 5 – 10 mph from the South.
