HATCH CHART
Water temps on the Willowemoc, Beaverkill have recovered after that heat wave. Flows are low and we are hoping for rain this Saturday to help a bit. The weather will continue to warm into the mid to high 80’s next week. Check water temps when the daytime highs are in the 80’s as afternoon/evening can be over 68F and should be avoided if so.
Spring can come and go on certain days but we make the best of it. A rain jacket, plenty of optimism, and a back up plan are a few things you shouldn’t leave home without. We have a few March Browns and large Invaria Sulphurs on some stretches. Trout are looking up in the mornings and evenings. Evenings will give great opportunity for spinner falls before dark so be ready.
Green Drakes are going, March Browns and Sulphurs in the mornings and small sulphur and caddis in the late evenings. Olives can be seen on cloudy or rainy days as things warm a bit under water. Spinners near dark.
2025 was another absolutely fantastic season shared with so many amazing new and returning Clients.
So many folks are getting well ahead of things and jumping on the books for 2026. If you have specific dates in mind for Spring 2027 please don’t hesitate to reach out to get on the calendar. This last winter I basically booked my Spring trips full by the time we got our first trip on the water.
I typically advise for booked dates to begin mid April but some spring seasons come on earlier. Early April bookings should be flexible in the instance we get a late start to spring and are better suited to those who live closer and can adjust if needed.
