Lower Owens River: Very Good
Flows continue to be released at 205 cfs and we have been told that they are going to hold for a while longer.?? The real time data has not been updated for a while on the LADWP website as of this report.?? This is the first time in several years we have had the opportunity to fish stable water in May and the fishing reflects the ideal flows.?? All sections have been fishing well and you will see afternoon caddis, morning mayflies for the icing on the cake.?? Nymphing with midge and PT patterns are solid choices in the wadeable sections.

Phil and Russ Green from Covina, CA took a drift with drift boat guide "Fill" Therrien recently and Phil Green got to buy dinner for catch and releasing the big one for the day.?? Green nailed his fish on a Loeberg while using the dip and strip from Fills rig.

The drift boating has been great and coupled with the warm weather and stable flows we are excited to be doing float trips this time of year.?? Book a trip now before the flows go up and you'll have to wait until fall to float the Lower "O"
