Owens River - CA

Flows have crashed to 200cfs. I did not see this coming in mid July so look for some great summertime action if they hold. You can bet your Grandma we will be drifting this very soon, and I suggest you look at the wild trout section in the morning and late afternoon when it cools down. Caddis, and small mayflies both as adults and nymphs. This low flow is abnormal for July and some incredible fishing will be seen here if the LADWP holds this release for a time. Yahoo, this is like a gift from the heavens!
