The effemerids for this, possibile but not sure, radiant, should to be the
following:

there are two sets:

a) time 18.5-19.1 April, radiant in AR 35.9°-36.9° (about 2 H 25 M)
                                     declination + 34.9°-35.9°
                                     (at near 2,5° from Gamma Triangulis)
                                     speed 17.25 km/sec

The Sun shall be at 25°, at the end of sunset the radiant shall be only
6° over the horizon (for around 40°-45° Nord)

b) time 22.1 April radiant in AR 37,9°-40.1° (about 2 H 30 M)
                                     declination + 34.8°-36.4°
                                     (at near 2,5° from Gamma Triangulis)
                                     speed 17.24-17,78 km/sec

The Sun shall be at 24°, at the end of sunset the radiant shall be only
5° over the horizon (for around 40°-45° Nord)
Moon, 1° Q. the 21 April

Conclusion: it shall be a very difficult, near impossibile
to see meteor shower, and this if the orbit has not changed
in the last years, probably some slow meteors can to be see
but the better way for observe they it's by radio.
Best greetings.
