Three more days of this heat wave, before finally some cooler temps and rain expected on Sunday. Water levels have been very low for a few weeks now and water temps have gotten very high this week. Even if conditions improve next week, it'd be a good idea to find alternative fishing options for a bit: the West Branch of the Delaware, smallmouth. largemouth, panfish, etc.
We're into June and it's time to pay very close attention to water temps. Morning is the safest window, as the warmest water temp of the day will be around 5pm. Evening is not a good option.
