We are very pleased to announce that we have obtained the exclusive rights to guide the Adobe Ranch area on the eastern side of the Glass Mountains. It is a forty minute drive from Mammoth Lakes. Adobe Creek is a fertile spring creek teaming with wild browns. It flows into what is left of Adobe Lake and this incredible shallow lake is stuffed with huge numbers of wild browns up to sixteen inches that are eager to hit dries and nymphs. We are offering special guide trips from our DRIFT BOATS to this area. This is a fun way to fly fish and it makes access very easy. If you enjoy sight fishing to rising trout or dry dropper/nymph rigs in short water this is Nirvana! This is a private fishery in a beautiful setting. You will have the place to yourself! We have limited the amount of days we guide this area to insure quality "catching" so book your trips soon. This will be hot! I am looking forward to the hoppers showing up as well as the huge callibaetis may fly hatches that make these browns so fat. This is a great trip for novices and those that enjoy dry fly action.

Tioga and Sonora Passes will be open by the Memorial Holiday weekend. The Mammoth Lakes Basin Road into Lake Mary is open and the lakes are ice free but have some snow drifts still lingering. The June Lake Loop is also open and the lakes in the JL are all in terrific shape. I strongly suggest you check the current conditions before planning a trip here as these roads close suddenly when it snows. The road into Reds Meadow and the San Joaquin will open on June 6 unless the weather alters the NFS plans. We have not been down into the SJ but it will have tendencies that all freestone creeks display this time of year.
