Here’s your Eastern Sierra Fishing Report 9-19-23. The fishing has gotten really good in the last few weeks here in the eastern sierra. Crowley Lake was the exception as a major algae bloom had the fish biting on some days and not cooperating the next day. Bridgeport Reservoir has plenty of water and has …

  Here’s your Eastern Sierra Fishing Report 7-12-23. Not a whole lot of change to report on for the past month, as Crowley Lake has still been the main game in town. It had its high and low days, but the fish are now starting to get into shallower water along the inlets. Most of …

  With the closure of the forest service, crowds have been reduced in the area, which makes for light angling pressure. The Labor Day weekend was pretty crazy at the lake with almost every single boat on Crowley trying to cram into the same area. It almost resembled a mini-opening day. Now, that the weekend …

  Kids are back in school and the crowds have really lightened up around the eastern sierra. Just in time for the midges to emerge again in big numbers, and the fish are really responding to them.

With nights starting to cool off and thunder storms rolling through on occasion in the afternoon, the water temperature has begun to cool down some now. Fish have turned heavily to …

  Wow! What a storm to finally hit the eastern sierra. Better late than never I guess. We will need a few more of these to bring our snow level up to normal though. The weather pattern is going to return to dry again, and hopefully we will get some more snow down the line. …

Some minor snow storms in the forecast for the coming days with the possibility of a light amount of snow coming with them. We dodged what was shaping up to be a major wind event in Long Valley where winds gusts on ridge tops were primed for 130 mph. Luckily, it never happened. Temperatures will …

Still looking pretty dry out there with no precipitation this month. Lodging is still unavailable in both Inyo and Mono Counties, but if you have an RV, condo or home in town, or are just a die hard angler who can drive up the same day and fish and then drive back, you can make …

  Where’s our snow? It is winter now and it has been a dry one. With a few storms here and there that have not brought us much snow, we continue to wait patiently. Nothing is in the forecast for the next few weeks for any major storms. The mountain at Mammoth can sure use …
