The Upper Owens River surroundings are now green and lush with wildflowers scattered along its landscape.  Yes, unbelievable large large and spectacular Trout are continuing to swim in the he waters of the Upper Owens River.  Majority of them being Lahontons.  Be very care not to fish for spawning fish obviously on a nest.  There are plenty in the usual haunts such as deeper holes and dark bends with eating on their mind.  Classic Attractor patterns and streamers will take these fish.  SJ worms, ham and eggs,  princes,  big soft hackles and the like will get attention here.  Experiencing this is a precious unique thing to experience,  I’m sure every savvy Fly angler will treat it that way.
