Here's your Eastern Sierra Fishing Report 3-5-24. We finally got a real winter storm. While this storm didn't bring much snow to elevations below 5800', a lot was left in areas above. Blizzard warnings were hoisted throughout the sierra this past weekend, with full highway closures, avalanches, and wind speeds we have not seen in quite some time. Gusts in Crowley Lake were reported around the 95 mph range, which knocked out power, uprooted trees, and caused damage to roofs and structures. After the smoke cleared, most open fishing areas remained accessible and have continued to fish well. The Upper Owens River is still snow free, but there is a lot of mud driving in. The bigs are still hanging around up here. Hot Creek has also been fishing well, especially in the afternoons when the BWO hatch starts. The Lower Owens River has been great with good numbers of fish on the drift boats and in the Wild Trout Section. Fish are still hanging in the big pools, with a few hugging tight to the seams along the brush.
