Similar story here to Hot Creek. Great dry fly fishing throughout most of the day. Similar patterns to Hot Creek but you can throw some bigger streamers here to entice that larger brown trout that is hiding out in the undercutts. Take a lightweight rod and a good nymphing rod. Evenings have been fun around here, and the hoppers are now jumping around on the banks and landing on the water.

This is a year around fishery with special regs in place. We walk and wade guide here.*Doug Rodricks, Doug Dolan, Hans Grotewold, and Devin Preston are under permit from the Inyo National Forest Service to guide Hot Creek.
