All river at great flows for summer Last weeks heavy rainfall had all of our river up and running heavy with turbidity. Over the weekend all of that cleared up and fine fishing conditions returned to most of our local waters. While the waters were up we had a great run of hot streamer fishing that lasted a few days. Over that time all of our guides were running hard. We had some nice fish come to net on both the East and West Delaware. Below are some shot from a family trip t

Heavy Rainfall and Bank Full Rivers! I finally have something new to report. The heavy rainfall that has been moving through most of the east has left some substantial water in the Upper Delaware River and throughout the Catskills. The rainfall from the last few days has caused all of our rivers to rise. The extent of high water varies by location.

In the coming weeks visitors to our area will have lots of options for chasing game fish with fly fishing or light spin tackle.

A West Branch Brown from this weekend Over the last few days the Upper Delaware Region is in a Heatwave! It has been a long time since we have had bright sun and temperatures north of 90 degrees. There is no better way to beat this heat than chasing trout in the Icy cold water of the West or East Delaware. This weekend the release rates were increased and our guests were treated to both the cooling effect of 40 degree water and lots of eager trout. For the next 2 months the
