I met Mike Grahm on Medical about 10:30 opening day. The weather was fair, 60 degrees with overcast and a moderate S.W. wind.
The water temperature was 53 degrees, which surprised me, since it hadn't raised much in the last couple of weeks. There were craneflies coming off the water on a fairly regular basis. The water was very clear.
I spent about 3 hours on the water and had a pretty good day......... watching Mike catch fish! Amazing! Kicking side by side around the north end of the lake, using the same techiques and flies and Mike continued to bring them in. I did manage to land one 14" Brown and get some great pictures of... you guessed it, Mike's fish!
Anyway, Medical Lake is producing very healthy fish this year.
