Conditions
Palisades Reservoir is running historically low at 11% capacity, and flows have stabilized around 4,120 cfs as of October 8. Dry-dropper and nymph rigs are your most reliable approach right now. Expect Mahoganies and BWOs, especially on overcast days, with some Caddis and Terrestrials mixed in. Clear skies and stable conditions should hold through the near term.
