The water

Delaware River is a tailwater below Cannonsville Reservoir / Pepacton Reservoir (multiple) in Catskills, fished for trout — brown, rainbow, brook. On dam-controlled water the generation schedule is the whole story: the wade window is the no-generation block, and rising water at the gauge means the pulse is arriving.
