Flows have come up to 250cfs in the wild trout section below PV Reservoir. This is by no means a blowout but will make access more difficult. Bishop Creek flows have doubled recently and this will make the lower drift boat sections suck for a day or so until they stabilize & the water clears up. It will also decrease the caddis and mayfly hatches that have begun to gell so do not expect epic top water action in the WT section for a while. Put some additional weight on those nymph rigs. I suggest flashback Pt's, assassin birds nest, and crystal olive caddis and zebra midge larva patterns #16-20 for nymphing. Hot streamers are Loebergs and Punk Perch #10-12. You will need a heavy sinking tip line for the "dip & strip" technique to get your imitations down.
