Blue skies today with a high of 70 degrees. This weather appears as though it will be consistent for the next few days as well. Water conditions are looking good for the West Branch; water temps are very favorable, the clarity is good, and the flows are perfect for both wade fishing and drift boat access! Water levels will likely continue to drop over the next few days provided that they don’t increase the release from Cannonsville Reservoir, but floatable water levels will likely be sustained through the weekend at least. The East Branch and Main Stem should continue to drop as well over the next few days, and the fishing will likely pick up. The dry fly action has been decent this past week, and we are optimistic that the fair weather forecasted for the rest of this week will continue to heat up the insect activity and hopefully bring more fish to the surface.
