The river is down and some trout rising. We are having temps close to 100 and will hit that tomorrow. Bright sun shinning and no sign of rain. We have not had any rain for a month_____________*** MY RESPONSE BEGINS ***____________We have no air conditioning so it is almost as hot in the house as outside, we got some rain today but if it helps it will take a day or two for the water to go up but it will remain very warm. I hear that down in the Catskill area they are asking you not to fish the Beaverkill and the Willowemoc because of the stress it puts on the fish.May your leaders sink, your felts hold, and your flies float high.

John, recent rains have brought the rivers up just a tad and helped some.
Its not a very good season this year so far though. The flood of April 2ed
wiped out the bugs.........so naturally it'll be a season or two before they
come back as strong as a usual year......whatever that is............lol.
Hopefully better next year anyway. And the rivers have been low and warm
every since late May/early June. The fish are there, but they need to
survive and catching them, even if released, doesn't help them do that. Hey,
the West Canada isn't that far and i hear it's fishing pretty good. Mostly
i'm hittin' the tribs, where the water is colder and i see no other anglers,
YES! mark.....
