Upper Delaware

A few things you've gotta take into consideration are the water flows.
This will let you know if you're going to be able to get out of your
boat and fish. If you do get out and fish, this will be a factor as
to where you will float to. Deposit to Hale Eddy is approximately a 6
mile float. I would imagine a Pontoon is a slower float, especially
with wind, than a drift boat. You may want to go from Deposit to the
Gamelands area downstream from Hale's Eddy. Balls Eddy I believe will
be way too far for a pontoon.

I know the Rainbow River Outfitters, owned by the West Branch Angler
has a shuttle service, as well as The Ultimate Flyfishing Store also
located in Hancock. Give them both a try.

A vast majority of the Delaware river guides post quite often on NEFF,
North Eastern Fly Fishing http://www.neflyfishing.net. You can ask
each of the guides all of your questions (you don't have to register
to leave these guides messages on the site).

- Good luck

I am planning my first float ( pontoon ) on the West Branch of the
Upper Delaware and will be starting at Deposit New York in the
morning. My question is: What access point should I pick (ending
point) to make arrangements for a shuttle service to pick me up? I
would like to figure on 5 - 6 hours on the river.

Also, any names & phone # of shuttle services operating during the
week would be greatly appreciated.
