The water temperature was not available this morning. A handful of guests ventured down to the run today. Cold temperatures from yesterday through last night created a goodly amount of slush / ice which made the fishing challenging.  Unfortunately, none of our guests connected with any steelhead or browns today. The forecast for tonight:  Periods of snow. Low 14F. Winds WSW at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of snow 100%. Snow accumulating 8 to 12 inches. The forecast for tomorrow:  Snow showers early will become steadier snow in the afternoon. High 22F. E winds shifting to WNW at 10 to 15 mph. Chance of snow 70%. Snow accumulating 1 to 3 inches. NOTE:  due to the potential for lake effect snow, and other forms of inclement weather conditions during the winter season, please monitor the weather for Pulaski, NY (zip code 13142) before getting on the road. Lake effect snow typically occurs in relatively narrow bands, and that immediately adjacent areas may be clear of snow, therefore look at the forecast and radar for the general area when planning your travel.
