Water conditions: Great
Flow: 45 CFS. This is a permanent flow required to be maintained by LADWP
Very clear conditions. Perfect practice for stealth casts and presentations.

Fishing Conditions and Hatches: Excellent
The bite starts about 10:00 and goes until about 3 pm. I wouldn\'t say balmy but very pleasant temps in this natural heater daily. Same bugs are working but have your dry flies ready for the baetis hatch around 12:00-2:00.
