4/25/2019 - STREAMER FLOATS

Alewife Imitation…

Alewife Imitation…

The early season on the Upper Delaware is always a bit of chaos.

The seasonal rains — mixed with runoff and bloated reservoirs — and cold water temperatures create conditions that call for very certain tactics to locate and catch fish.

The cold water — not yet 50 degrees in most parts — along with the high water has yet to see prolific insect emergences.

Infrequent Hendricksons and Blue Quills have not yet been noticed by our resident trout. The water is also lacking definition — meaning that riffles, current margins, holes, drop offs, and seams have yet to take shape in the overflow.

Streamer fishing has been the most productive way to catch our tailwater trout during this early season period. Streamers allow you to cover the water quickly and efficiently as well as imitate the bounty of Alewives currently spilling over the reservoir dams. Streamer fishing is also best done from a boat…
