Owens river 11-11-2019 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Tigermidge · 11-14-2019, 04:25 PM

Well I made plans to go, and my buddy went to Redding to Steelhead, I went anyway.
Monday left the house at 4 AM.and was fishing by 9:30. on the lower Owen.
Best one of the day.

Tuesday Went for a hike down the Gorge to see how the flush flow changed the area I fish around the second power plant.

Caught a few dinks but did see a 14 incher.
Then back down to the Owens and a hard place to get into. I had two crawl though the bushes on all 4s to get to the hole.
It was worth it I caught 8 fish 3-- 18 inch.

WOW that was crazy!
Wednesday I did a bunch of recon on the river, running here and there to check out how the place had changed with the flow at 700 for 6 months.
Caught a nice one too.

The Owen flow was down to 200 CFS.
A great trip.
