The recent heat-wave means that summer has come to shut down the lowland-lake trout options.?? Though some lakes provide depth to the extent that trout can gain relief (appropriate oxygen levels), wrestling the fish through the warmer, oxygen-depleted top layer of water can prove decidedly lethal.?? Hope for an early fall!
To keep the Stillwater love alive, seek the relief of elevation, as in go-Alpine.?? Leech at White Pass is surely popular and prolific and only just starting to get going.??

Attractor dries (humpies, wulff's) will fool their fair share of fish; however, there's a #14-#16 amber/cinnamon Caddis, Golden Stones (#10) and Little Green Stones (#16 2xl) around to be reckoned with, as well.?? Sometimes, on this river, a close match can make...... Read More
