Water Conditions:GOOD
The flow here on the upper owens is still good right now. Flowing at 100 cfs, with a little color to the water.
Fishing Conditions and Hatches:GOOD
The streamer fishing below the bridge continues to be good. Keep casting and striping and there are some nice fish to be had. The action above the bridge started to get better with some good action nymphing the deep bends with caddis and pheasant tails. Don't forget to stay for the evening caddis hatch from 6pm till dark. Try a #16 tan elk hair with a sparkle pupa, or a small soft hackle.
Recommended Flies:

#16 Micro Stone, #16 Copper John in black or Copper, #12-14 Red San Juan Worm, #12-18 Zug Bug, #14-18 Hares Ear, #18-20 Olive WD40's, #16 Sparkle Pupa, #16-20 Soft Hackles, #14-18 Zebra Midges, #16-20 Flashback pheasant tails

Guide's Hint: While streamer fishing make sure you are methodical. Change your strip; speed, length and depth to hone in to what the fish are looking for. Keep your feet moving, as every step will help you cover a new piece of water.
