Fish Report for 7-21-2024

Fish Remain Feisty With Plenty of Energy

7-21-2024
Kens Sporting Goods Staff

The EW is flowing at about 232 cfs right now. The water temps are starting to get up there pretty high but so far it seems as though the fish are still pretty feisty and releasing with plenty of energy. The mornings and late evenings are going to be the best time to fish with the mid-day time frame being the best time to give the river a rest. They’re still eating caddis nymphs, small midge patterns and some dry flies the best down there. We’ll be keeping a close eye on the water temperatures and the fishes health and we will let you know if/when it comes to a time to let the river rest until the weather cools down. Some patterns to try: buckskin caddis, Fox’s poopah, perdigon, silver streak, picky eater, pheasant tail, elk hair caddis, E/C caddis, parachute adams, chubby chernobyl. 

Also, some food for thought, in the Fish and Wildlife Departments infinite wisdom they have decided to not make barbless hooks mandatory on the East Walker, this is absolutely going to be detrimental to the life if this amazing river in the future, if you care at all about the East Walker and its sustainability, please pinch your barbs, if everyone adheres to this practice it will help the East Walker River to keep on being a world class fishery. Thanks for your consideration.
