Latest Trip to the Owens River

Written by Wayne Thompson

The latest Owens River Trip is now history. Nine anglers made the journey, a slow trip for some and fast for others. A spectacular time was had by all with everyone catching fish, some more than others. We learned a new way of crimping large lead shot and discovered an added benefit of dumpster diving.Not going on the holiday weekend had the benefit of much smaller crowds on the River and in the restaurants; join us next year.
