Hit the water at about 10:30am and fished till 1:00. First time fishing this lake and it was a perfect day. I decided to break out the old fly rod and give it a go. I was fishing floating line and a six foot leader and started with a copper john. After 20-40 casts I didn't have any luck and decided to change it up. I switched to a wooly bugger with olive green and yellow. After a few casts, I noticed a fish trailing the lure and got excited that I must be on the right track. Ten casts later I land a small planter rainbow (12in). I continued fishing this lure for a while and had no bites. I chose to work the shallow area near the boat launch, next time I will try deeper water.

Overall, it was a great day to be on the water and I saw a lot of fish feeding on the top and I think with the right fly I could have done very well. I would recommend this lake to everyone.

Try size 4-6 knudson spiders in orange or brown, then try a cary special, and if all else fails troll a pistol pete, these will be your best patterns for bosworth this time of year, by far. When they weather getshot you will have to fish deeper, blood worm under an indicator will bag fish july/august. Hope this helps
