Spent a 4 day long weekend in Mammoth last weekend and had a lot of fun tossing hoppers on Hot Creek and the Upper Owens in the afternoons and fished 3 mornings at Crowley Lake. The fishing wasn't quite red hot but there were some nice fish to be caught. There was quite a bit of company in all spots on Friday and Saturday. Here is a nice Brown that I got on a hopper at Hot Creek.

I was up there as well. An unbelievable amount of hoppers around. Always fun to throw foam all day!

Just got back from 2 days on the Upper Owens and Hot Creek. Fishing was GREAT as the weather has turned cooler. Caught 9 nice Rainbows and lost 5, darn barbless hooks :o, on the Owens and this one at sunset on Hot Creek. As you can see it was cold as the wind came up.
