Delaware River, Main Stem - Hancock to Callicoon
Tip of the week:
Techniques:
Prospect the seams and banks with a dropper rig until a hatch starts, then target rising fish.
Seven-day forecast:
It'll stay a floating game, too high to wade. Clouds and showers & T-storms aren't forecast to bring too much rain but with Cannonsville still spilling over it will stay on the high side. As the West Branch release is cut back you'll see the flows on the main drop, but the precip might make up the difference and keep things as is. There have been some March Brownsbut, don't bet on them except well downriver. It wouldn't hurt to have a March Brown emerger pattern or two on your person, just sayin'.
