The Upper Owens is flowing at a great fishing flow of 65 cfs, it is clear and water is perfect for fishing. The new news on the Upper Owens is that there are some lunkers in there up from Crowley lake. A little tough to catch at the moment- as they acclimate to their new enviroment and food they will be on the chew to sustain their body weight. As far as fly patterns not much has changed. San Juan Worms #10-14, Robo Pheasant Tails #14-18 , Hares Ears #14-18, Trigger and sparkle back emergers #’s 16-20, and Disco, T and UV midges in #18-20 will get fish below the water. Copper Johns in red have also been getting attention #16-20. Large Streamers will also take fish. Streamers must be heavy enough to get down to fish. A #3-6 sinking tip fly line will also get it down. Stay tuned for some large fish to come out of this water.
