Please advise the weather gods that it’s time to go fly fishing.

Check out the balminess forecast to waft in by the weekend. Early stoneflies are out in force, could some early season caddis and mayflies be far behind. Water levels are too high to wade on the West Branch and Main Stem, but the East Branch, Beaverkill, and Willowemoc should be in the game. Check the flow levels on our website to be sure no errant downpour jumped the levels up. We’re open full time for the season, 7 days a week, starting this Friday.
