Extended Forecast for Roscoe NY  https://www.wunderground.com/weather/us/ny/roscoe

Fishing reports and conditions:  8/28/26, 7:15 a.m.

  Strong cells hit certain areas of the Catskills, example Cook Falls and Roscoe saw about .85 to 1.4 inches of rain, Rivers came up and have a tint, but one could fish/wade them this morning.  The Esopus is the one that may have the most color. All rivers have crested and falling as I write this. Tailwaters still best bet for daytime activity, morning on the East one could see Trico's , Freestones are usually best mornings and Evenings, midday one might have to get creative, Dry droppers, Swing wets. In my box I would carry some Sulhers, Olives, Iso's, Caddis, Trico's, Hebe's Cahill's. A whilte Wulff is a good attractor fly this time of the year. With the water up a bit a Bugger might be good to fish, Olive, Black or Orange. In the shop Anglers are walking out the door with Terrestrials now. Today cloudy start to sunny skies, high near 73 degrees, winds N/NW 0-8 mph with gusts up to 16 mph. Again, some strong cells hit last night, but Rivers are fishable and Wadable this morning.
