: Walker River: East Walker Flow is currently at 117 cfs. Fishing has been good even with higher river flows. Anglers have reported good May hatches . Try using May fly patterns this time of year and drop off a heavy weighted caddis or bb shot with a caddis pattern. Fish the edges hard this time of year, fish tend to concentrate on the edges to gobble up stone fly hatches and bait fish. Current brown trout study is going on and researchers are requesting information on tagged fish including color (to determine if wild or hatchery) and location where caught.
