Water and hatch report

[Sam Potter]

The river is running very low and clear and there are lots of fish to be caught especially after the last stocking of the year in Montauk park this weekend. The brown trout in the river are spooky so approach the holes slowly and keep your distance. The Tricos are still coming off at dawn and the BWOs are kicking in about 10:00 or 11:00. The evening hatches include midges, caddis and sulfers.

Sam,

Are you speaking of the hatches as being just below the park or further down in the trophy area? I hope to get out there in the next few weeks (maybe Sunday) so the hatch info helps. I imagine hoppers may still be effective as long as we don't get a deep freeze? Thanks.

Tom, I am talking about hatches that occur below Montauk to Cedar Grove. My last trip to the river was about a mile or so below the park.
