It was 40 degrees at 6 am so it’s going to take a bit of time to warm up today. We do have thick fog again in places but that should burn off in the next hour. It’s another day when streamers could pay off before the sun hits the water. Nymphing will probably be the best bet by mid morning but some river sections are seeing enough Isonychias it could be worth blind casting dries. The olives and hebes should hatch late afternoon.
Cannonsville is turning over so the West Branch has that green tint we get most Falls. It doesn’t bother the fish or the bugs.
Today will be 63 degrees with sun and a few clouds. Wind will be 5 – 10 mph from the West.
What’s Hatching:
Dark Blue Wing Olive – #16 – 18 – Baetis spp.
Slate Drake – #12 – 14 – Isonychia bicolor
