Virginia Lakes - Bridgeport, CA (Mono County)

Carolyn Webb of the Virginia Lakes Resort: Little Virginia fishing slowed during the last week due to the amount of fishermen and the fish taken. Top honors went to Salmon Peach once again, with Pautzke's Green Label taking second. Power Worms in pink was a good bet using No. 14 dry fly hooks instead of a treble with regular Power Bait. Nothing in size came out except for a couple 2-pound browns, and some nice brookies. Big Virginia produced nice limits on Adams Parachute and Gray Hackle Peacock in the southeast corner, as well as worms in the northwest corner. Lots of red/gold Thomas Buoyant lures saw action as well as green Roostertails. Trumbull has a new batch of 4 to 5 inch browns cruising and being nothing more than an irritation, taking everything that hits the water, but it's good to know the browns are turning around in the lake. Salmon eggs, marshmallows and worms have worked most of the week. The backcountry lakes are producing small brooks and a few air stocked bows near the inlets and outlets. Lures, flies and worms are the attraction for the upper reaches of the canyon. ?Į
