The water cooled down some with the last few storms and slowed the bite as well. We are still seeing some bigs most drifts and they are taking streamers fished "dip & strip" style. The bite is definitely tied to the BWO mayfly emergence these days and you will observe the best "catching" just prior & during the hatch. It can then slowdown in the late afternoon. Wading around the WT section of the Lower Owens remains very good most days. Flows remain below 100cfs here. Nymphing with midges #18-22 in the mornings and switching to FB PT's #16-20 just before the afternoon hatch will get positive results. The pinnacle of our sport is fishing dry flies to rising trout. February and March are prime time on the Lower Owens River for this event. Have some blue winged olives #16-18 handy around noon. You should also have a dry shake type desiccant to keep your adults riding high in the suds. Mayflies like to "hide" in the foam as they dry their wings before taking off. You will see the trout focus on these foam lines during a significant emergence.
