Delaware River Report: September 19, 2022

The release from Cannonsville remains around 300 cfs. Cool nights have kept the river temps in check. Yesterday was a mix of sunshine with some clouds. A little too much sun at times. People found some fish on small olives but a lot of the fishing was subsurface again. Today we have a weather change with cloud cover early with potential storms in the afternoon. According to Wunderground the total rainfall for us will be 1/4″. Wind will be 5 – 10 mph from the South with some higher gusts possible. Overall it sounds like a good day to be on the water fishing olives in some wind protected areas.

Jim with a good one from the weekend
