Daily fishing verdict · 2026-10-15

Rain incoming Friday — fish today under cloudy skies.

Published: 2026-10-15 Written from: the dock at 1511 Oak Orchard River Rd, Waterport, NY

Water's sitting at 59.4°F and cooling, flow steady around 73 cfs, and turbidity is holding at 14.5 FNU — workable conditions for kings, though dissolved oxygen at 4.8 mg/L is on the low side and could keep fish sluggish. Mostly cloudy today with no rain, but Friday brings a near-certain soaking, so if you've got any flexibility, today is likely the better window.
