Hi friends. Flows have moved significantly higher on the East Walker (256cfs), this may slow the bite down until the fish adjust, & flows stabilize. Greg Roznowski had a great day prior to the flow increase. Broke into double digits nymphing with Doug Dolan. Hot Creek still fishing well during nicer weather. Good water conditions here. Middle Owens flows have leveled off improving the bite, and water conditions. Maddy Kelly is back in the report as she battled her dad for the "dip & strip" title. She narrowly edged out Mitch for the top spot on a recent drift. The warm up will trigger increased feeding activity. Drift boat trips have improved recently. Crowley Lake, & Bridgeport Reservoir are fishing well during good weather periods. Looking like a nice start for a change. The cooler/windy weather slowed “catching” down recently. Bite will no doubt pick up as the mercury climbs. Both locations have great water conditions. Cutthroat migrations on the Upper Owens, and tributaries of Crowley Owens remain light. Warmer weather, and full moon might be the catalyst to push them up. Owens Valley will see upper 80’s on the weekend. No precipitation on the horizon for a while, with a stable weather cycle forecast.
