Water Conditions: Good the lake is full to the brim. Clear and getting warmer everyday. With the warmer water comes lots of weeds.

Fishing Conditions and Hatches: Good but the weeds are already a problem. Especially at inlets around the lake making midging difficult. Pull streamers early and switch to midges around mid-day.

RECOMMENDED FLIES:

Nymphs:
Copper Tiger Midge #18-20, Black/Red Tiger Midge #18-20

Streamers: Hornberg, Olive Matuka, Black Wolly Bugger, Flashabou Bugger, Rickard's Seal Bugger
