In spite of out great water year the Lower Owens tailwater fishery out of Pleasant Valley Reservoir continues to produce stunning wild brown trout.  Early morning a Trico Hatch comes off that completely challenges any skill level of angler.  These fish have been very consistent and one can count on  the hatch happening earlier morning for the past few weeks and continuing even today.  Nymphing,  of course produces the most fish throughout the day. Use something similar to or the same basic patterns as stated in my last report for optimal success.
