Hey Jon S, What happened to Lower O Flows?

Postby midger » November 23rd, 2013, 11:29 am

I've noticed that the past few days the Lower O has been flowing at 0 cfs. Hope that's not the actual flow or those fish are going to be pretty high and dry. :sad:

Pretty sure it's faulty programming by the original programmer.

Edit: No it's not. Here's the source the data is pulled from:
http://wsoweb.ladwp.com/Aqueduct/realtime/32890.htm

They are reporting it at 0.

We've had the problem before and fixed it. Jon will get it right when he checks and sees it.

The original programmer did a stellar job putting things together...which is why it has been kept just as it was all this time.

Will leave it alone.
looked for a few flow reports and they all state it as 0.
Maybe if it does not change will re visit this topic.

I hope the DWP turns the flows back on. I plan on going up next week and zero flow is a bit low for my style of fishing. ;)

Just got back yesterday after 2 days of 0 flows with several 13' and one great 17". Contrary to belief I was catching on larger WD40's size 16, 14. when picking up rocks the caddis were very large and fat. Don't worry about the flows. just go… and visit David.

Just nymph the larger deep holes.

And were you studying for your exam?
The Lower Owens is a good place, you can practice you mending skills, accuracy, distance, roll cast, off-shoulder, slack line, wide, narrow, and tailing loops, etc.
