Today will be another bright sunny day that makes it feel like August. There are some caddis and a few mayflies during the day but nymphing early has been the best option. The hatching picks up in the evening as the sun drops. Tan caddis are the most common insect we’ve seen during the day. Sulphurs, Light Cahills, March Browns, cornutas and a few Green Drakes are hatching. Dark Blue Sedges #14 are out in the evening (Psilotreta sp.). Keep an eye on the water temps. The Beaverkill at Cooks Falls, East Branch at Fishs Eddy, and Mainstem at Lordville all peaked close to or above 70 degrees yesterday,
Today will be hot again hitting 84 degrees with what Wunderground describes as “A good deal of sunshine”. Wind will be 5 – 10 mph from the South.
