Flows are 130 CFS. They are starting to creep up with irrigation season in full swing. The warmer air temps. over the past few days has the farmers calling for water. The flows are still absolutely perfect but they are starting to go up. The East Walker fishes the best when the flows do not change much. It is not so much about the size of the flow but more about it being consistent. It is worth doing for sure but keep an eye on the flows and check them right before you go.
Nymphing with Caddis, Stoneflies, Midges and just about any size 16-18 bead head nymphs are worth a try. Dry dropper set-ups can also be effective. Make sure as the flows go up to fish the edges and the slower water out of the main current. Be stealthy when approaching holes and runs and look for fish hanging out in the edges out of the faster water.
