East Lake was insane yesterday for old guide Danny yesterday fishing balanced minnows on a sink tip. Callibaetis hatches are about kaput, but the nymphs remain important for a bit until the water temps go down to the 40’s. Leeches, damsel nymphs and beetles are great fall choices on East.
Good launching for drift boats at Hot Springs and Cinder. Some people are doing it at EL CG but the drop off is pretty rough for some vehicle and trailer combos. Tubes and Pontoons can be launched anywhere. East ought to stay strong for October fishing and is a top pick for sure.
