Mother Nature threw a major curveball at Crowley today! 🌬️🌊 We’re getting huge gusts from a storm that is hitting way harder than the forecast predicted.
If you’ve got a boat on the docks, come down and hang out with us guides. We’re just hunkered down waiting for a safe, calm window to get the boats back onto their trailers. Just a friendly reminder that isn’t always perfectly glassy water and bent rods! Come say hi! 🚤💨

The cutthroats are starting to do their thing. Respect spawning fish and instead fish the deep bends and buckets where you’ll find fish feeding. Sit back and admire from afar. Avoid wading through tailout sections of river where most likely you’ll find redds. Let’s ensure the future of our healthy fishery! ❤️❤️

Well these are just a few of the pics for the after FISHMAS party. It’s been cool here in Mammoth Lakes, but the fishing is solid. Come up and visit us, we still have opening for guide trips. Hot Creek and Crowley have been on fire🔥🎣. Water is cold and that means the fish are active🙌

The Upper Owens is still fishing well! Most of the snow has melted with the warm temps/rain we had in the last week making more of the river accessible. 4x4 high clearance vehicles are still recommended as there are some pretty deep & muddy puddles out there still on the roads. Get in touch with us at the shop here to book a guided trip on any of our rivers (760)924-3676 Tight Lines everyone!

Get in touch with Chad for a day on any of the available waterways in the Eastern Sierra. He will put you on the fish and show you a great time. Ask him about available float trips as well. A great way to leave the crowds behind and find some solitude. 🤌
