Good advice. Down here in the Trenton Washington Crossing area we got 1.63 inches of rain in about an hour yesterday afternoon. The river is high, muddy and dangerous. Stay away.

Hit the shoreline in the deep eddy's and brook inlets. bright colors and alot of lure action they pile in when it's ragin'. I.E. the Mashipicong trench, Flatbrook great bend. the fish will ride the edges of the clearer water flowing in sobring some sheers and cut ur way in from shore... agree to hell with boating it! been a terrible season for boating the delaware...been so up & down!!! so hard to plan out!
