Low flows are making for tough fishing recently on the East Walker. Currently flows are low, roughly 20cfs.  Fish are definitely concentrated in the larger pools. Fly fisherman using small nymphs under larger dries (dry/dropper) are picking up the occasional good trout. Fish are spooky so be sure to watch your shadows and keep your approach to the water quiet.
