Lower Owens

[daddy69]

Planning a trip to the Lower O beginning of March, not sure what the weather holds in store for us, but regardless we are going. I will be tying flies this weekend and have my favorites for the river, but does anyone have their own favs - originals to share?
I'll try to post pix of my own recipes soon enough. I have my own Caddis dry and larvae I love to use and have great success though I've heard people having 30 fish days and on my best have done 10-12. I've been going there since I was 15. Help a brother out.

Thanks in advance

Blue-wing olives. Size 16-18. Emergers, simple loop wing type or RS2's. Of course midges in 18-22 in zebra, or olive/black. I have also done well on small brown or tan stone patterns in size 14-16. Something like a brown prince, dubbed body and amber biots, gold bead.

More than likely too early for any caddis action, but I would like to see your larva pattern. I have been doing well on a cased larva up here in Idaho this winter.

Thanks for the input. I'll be breaking out the tying gear this weekend and try to get some good shots of my Owens standby's.
