Weekend Outlook As is always the case in April the question of the day is will the rain change fishing conditions and keep us off the rivers? For the Baxter House Guide Staff the answer is no.

Mid Week Update Over the last 2 days the water levels have been dropping. The degree that the water has fallen depends on the river. Our freestones as always have dropped the most. The Willowemoc and Beaverkill have dropped dramatically from where they crested Monday morning. The Tailwaters have dropped but they will eventually settle out and remain steady. When this happens it will likely be at flows that are either in the upper ranges of most wade anglers ability or above.
