Hot Creek is fishing well, good action on caddis, midge or midge clusters

HC is still fishing well, solid surface action on caddis, midge or midge clusters as they are getting smaller. PMD mayflies around as well so have some #18-20 adults. I like to use a size or two down from the naturals here unless you are tossing terrestrials like hoppers or beetles.

Flows are low for this time of year, it will get tougher here as the summer rolls on and fall will have very skinny water and high weeds. Dry dropper combos with bead head nymphs or emergers are a good choice if you are working water that is over two feet. Deep slots in the weed lines are also great holds this time of year and accurate casts with a spot on dead drift will get grabs. Don't target too much water at once on a drift. Position, present, perform.
