Nymphing during the day as been the go-to as of late, but covering water and blind casting the big bugs like Iso’s and Cahills through the riffles and seams has helped pick up some nice fish. When you do come across a rising fish, take your time. Take a few less casts and match the fish’s feeding frequency.
We’ve got some cooler temps and rain in the forecast for the weekend, which will hopefully help cool things down on the lower ends of the system.
The fly shop is now open for curbside pick-up and limited foot traffic. We are looking forward to seeing you all and hearing how your season has gone thus far.
We have dates available for guided trips! Give us a call will any questions about booking a fishing trip on the Upper Delaware River!
