People usually don't post reports about those lakes but as far as conditions go, they're both ice free by now. I'd go Parker for the chance at quality and Walker for a better chance at avoiding the skunk.

We were up at Parker this past Saturday and it was pretty slow. I was using wet and dry flies on a spinning outfit with ZERO hits. Also no hits with Thomas Bouyant red and gold lurer. Only one fish caught in our group was a beautiful 2lb brown on a nightcrawler at the inlet. We started fishing about 8:30 am...maybe too late for the morning bite?? Good luck!

Thanks for the update. If the fish aren't biting, at least we can enjoy the scenery..

Stopped at walker lake last year on a hike up bloody canyon to sardine lake, via the walker lake trailhead. Only made 2 casts but got fish on both, i definitley want to go back and spend some more time there. I heard there might be another way in there? Pm if you don`t want to post.
