Owens River Gorge - 4/15/2021 Flows at 65CFS at Middle Gorge Power Plant - Water is dirty

Rod Size: #3-#4 Weights

Tippet Size: 4-6X

Streamers:

Flows have been stable here, and it fished very well considering the water clarity when I was there last. Even got a few grabs towards 1pm with just an orange Stimulator. Dry dropper is the best way to fish down here. Keep in mind the nettles are starting to turn green again, so beware!
