Eastern Sierras for the past 3 days. East Walker and Lower Owens. East Walker was off the charts awesome. Big fish and little flies. #22-#24 Zebra midges, Brassies. #18 FBPT's. Midge emergers. The flow is only 19 CFS which is the lowest allowed by law. If you fish the E. Walker make sure you release the fish as soon as possible because there is very little oxygen in the water.
Lower Owens was good too but not as much action. It seems as though we hit it on a slow day because we had been expecting huge hatches. We had a great time swinging wooly buggers last night though. Had some BIG fish strike but didn't hook any of the monsters.

Great you guys had the spots to yourselves. Most fly fishermen are fair weather fans, which is great!
