Heading up to the owens this weekend and just wondering how the fishing is. I have only fished there a few times and only produced small DFG stockers, so any advie to get the larger ones would be great. Also, does anyone know if we are aloud to camp at lower owens...probably not but thought I would ask.
You can camp below Pleasent Valley Res. along the river. As for the River there is special regulations near the camp sites, so read them before you fish. So long as your not in the "catch & release" area, try a small floating rapala. Watch it drift down current near bushes or stick-ups... put the reel in gear and just hold for a few seconds... then crank real slow... your sure to meet up with Mr. Brown.
The general trout season opens on Saturday. Why limit yourself to the lower owens. There are hundreds of miles of creeks,stream and lakes opening up,. Get out and find them fish
Dude, you're crazy if you spend all of you time fishing the lower owens. It's open year around and quite frankly, doesn't come close to the fishing you'll find in most of the higher elevation lakes and streams.
See ya on Saturday. may stop by on Friday nightQuote:

I usually fish the upper lakes (Lundy, Gull, Rock Creek...) but I am not a big fan of the crouds on opening day. Guess it is off to the kern for a feww hours....Quote:
