General Update:	At the current level (425 CFS) the flow is getting better... The Army Corps Of Engineers are doing work on the dam this month. Expect lower than normal flows after they release this extra water from the recent storm. The Tully was stocked on March 11th with adult trout from 10" - 13".

Specifics and Tips:	ANGLERS VISITING OUR AREA.........SPECIFICALLLY THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE JUST FISHED THE DELAWARE RIVER (OR OTHER STREAMS IN NY'S CATSKILL REGION) OR MARYLAND'S GUNPOWDER, PLEASE CLEAN YOUR BOOTS AND WADER WITH A DILUTED BLEACH SOLUTION, OR HOT WATER (OVER 140 DEGREES f) AND LAUNDRY DETERGENT--IT MUST SOAK FOR AT LEAST A HALF HOUR. DIDYMO HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED IN THESE WATERSHEDS. Or even better yet, get a second pair of boots and waders to wear only in infected waters. It's the only sure way not to spread Didymo. .............BE RESPONSIBLE-DONT SPREAD DIDYMO TO THE TULLY!! Click here to learn more about DIDYMO. This is a real threat to all of us!
