The flows on the EW are still around 219 cfs and the river is still fishing very well. The caddis hatches are in full swing which is turning on some good dry fly fishing most days as well as day in and day out good nymphing. We’ve been getting a couple good streamer reports now and then as well though that doesn’t seem to be as consistant as nymphs and dries. The weather has warmed up enough so that most anglers are wet wading down there lately. Some patterns to try include: buckskin caddis, z-wing caddis, Fox’s poopah, LaFontaines deep sparkle pupa, perdigon, silver streak, flashback emerger, rainbow warrior, elk hair caddis, E/C caddis, razor caddis, parachute Adams.
Also, some food for thought, in the Fish and Wildlife Departments infinite wisdom they have decided to not make barbless hooks mandatory on the East Walker, this is absolutely going to be detrimental to the life if this amazing river in the future, if you care at all about the East Walker and its sustainability, please pinch your barbs, if everyone adheres to this practice it will help the East Walker River to keep on being a world class fishery. Thanks for your consideration.
