Fished Omak Lake on 2/26......calm wind, hazy sun, but cooooold. Water temp 38
warmed to 39 afternoon. Started 8AM, drug leech for 20 min...no results. Anchored up
and dunked a bloodworm pattern I pirated from a guide over here. Got into
fish immediately and from 8:30 to 11:30 caught 17 Lahontins to 3# or so all
on the bloodworm in 7-10 foot of water.
Hatch of #16 black chrionomids started around 10 and bloodworm bite tapered
as it hit full swing around 11. Switched to a pupa and could get no bites on
Pupa??? Twas a massive hatch though.
Blew my theory that major chironomid hatches don't start till water hits 42. Not So!
Oh, and as usual, I fished ALONE all day... the usual for Omak Lake
Most underfished good fishing lake in the State.
