May is almost done, but Mother Nature apparently gave the Eastern Sierras a bit more of the white stuff before she makes way to scorching summers and dried up creeks. Will the latest run off be enough to assist the already tough conditions? Only time will tell.
Fishing was decent in the familiar haunts on dry dropper combos. Hatch below PVR happened at the usual time, with last generation BWOs giving way during the cloudy conditions. Got broken off on a larger brown on that stretch that inhaled my only size 16 Klinkhammer BWO. Did see some caddis activity as well. Flows are about 144 cfs, with the water being warm enough for wet wading. Higher elevation creeks are also producing the standard fare of popcorn fish, with "larger" fish (relatively speaking of course) not being as aggressive as their smaller counterparts and taking good casting and stealth presentations in order to get them to go.
