We woke up to some light rain this morning but it hasn’t been enough to bump the river flows. We should see 1/4″ today. We’ve been dry and the leaves are budding out so it shouldn’t have much of an affect on the rivers. Today has a blue wing olive feel but there should also be Hendricksons, Blue Quills, March Brown, and Gray Fox depending on where you are fishing. Have your Hendrickson spinners handy just in case. Some days we’ve seen them mid afternoon and other days we’ve seen them in the evening. Cahills can’t be too far off on the Main and Lower East Branch. The apple caddis and little tan caddis may make an appearance if there are breaks in the wind or wind protected areas. Overall everyone found fish yesterday despite the wind.
Today will be 53 degrees, cloudy, with periods of rain. Total rainfall will be .25″. Wind will be 10 – 15 mph from the South.
