The Upper Owens River Fly Fishing has been pretty great!  Tons of snow fell on the Upper Owens River access sites making this snowmobile or foot access only.  The river is slowly thawing above the upper Hot  Creek confluence.  Fishing has been awesome for size of fish in an amazing setting in a small stream meandering through a snowy high plain.  This is some of the finest fishing a dedicated fly angler can find in the world.  Pick the deepest and darkest runs,  deep riffles, and pools to strategically place your offerings in.  Step up the pound test of your Tippett and tie on some large Attractor patterns.  Think of it as kinda a steelhead/Trout fishing so throw some spawning colours in there! 🙂
