Best time to fish Mammoth Creek

The DWR has stocked Mammoth Creek 22 times over the last 5 seasons, and 86% of those plants landed in May through July — the freshest fish and the easiest bite usually follow within a week or two of a stocking. Flows typically peak in May (about 150 cfs median) and settle to their lowest in January (about 11 cfs) — the wadeable, clear-water window usually opens once flows drop below the seasonal median, and the 72-hour chart above shows where today sits against it.
