The Trout Fitter Reports

for Friday, June 10th, 2011

Lake Mary: Road Still not plowed, but the ice has melted
Hot Creek: Excellent Hatches on Hot Creek
Crowley Lake: The water is still too cold for the fish to be real active on Lake Crowley
Owens River: The Upper Owens river is getting more consistent hatches, but be sure to watch the flows
Owens River: Owens River Gorge may be the best fishing right now
Owens River: The flows are better on the Lower Owens and the fishing is good, look for the slower moving water
Bridgeport Reservoir: The fishing at Bridgeport Reservoir seems to be picking up as the weather warms
East Walker River (CA): The flows on the East Walker are making the fishing tough.
