Delaware River, West Branch
Tip of the week:
Techniques:
We have been seeing a few more rising fish on the system. Taking BWO's, Hendricksons, some Blue Quills, Quill Gordons and Apple and Tan Caddis. Nymphing and throwing streamers has also been rather productive in the right conditions and sections on the river.
Seven-day forecast:
The outlook for the week looks to be good with temps in the mid 70's. Hopefully the river will drop some more and will become wadeable.
