Be more patient on Hot Creek and scout before you fish

Water conditions are good with flows up a tad making extended drifts possible over the weeds. Under current conditions you can fish sections that are not hammered when flows are lower. Many fish hide along, and under the thick weed. Identify these lanes by just observing the water for a while without casting. The fish will vacillate in and out of their holds and you can make a much better presentation by spotting them before just blind casting and spooking them. Windy weather towards the end of May kept many off the water. As it warms look for the caddis to become prevalent, and Pale Morning Dun (PMD) mayflies to be the flies de'jour. #18-22 PT's and olive midges work well while nymphing or fishing under a dry as your indicator.
