River Report

Fishing reports and conditions: 6/4/23 A little fog is hanging over the Beaverkill this morning and the birds don't mind as they sing. Last night reminded me of why I love the Catskill's rivers as the Moon came up and the day was ending a lone Owl was hooting from the Mountain saying goodnight, the Beaver was busy finding food and the two deer walked the bank across from me as if I couldn't see them. These encounters bring a smile to me and as I feel I'm suppose to be here at these moments. The West branch had sulphers on the water along with Iso's and small Olives late in the day. Fish were up and we had targets we both placed fish in the net and we missed a few too. The Freestone rivers are in need of rain and morning fishing is recommended, this is the time of the year one should carry a thermometer as you may be able to fish this afternoon. Tailwaters are fishing well you will have targets but you will be sharing the water with boats and other anglers. In my box I would carry Sulphers, Olives #14-20, Iso's, a Drake both Green and Brown. Spinners of different sizes and Caddis of different colors and sizes. A dry dropper could work during the day with a small Pheasant tail. Or swing some soft hackles in the riffles as a tandem. Today Sun and clouds, high 67 degrees with a North wind 10-15 mph. Still the best fishing now is anytime your in the water and not at work, but get on the water early, then come back late in the day and fish till dark.
