We were the only boat on the lake all day! Weather was nice, a little wind. The water is still up in the parking lot about 10 yards above the 5MPH sign.
A few alder flies and a few caddis were the only bugs we saw. Very little surface feeding. Worked the willows at the north end... one brown trout, small. Fished the edges all day with only two more cutthroat. Water temp was 62! We have had some warm days and it must have really heated the lake up. Fly fished only with both dries and wet flies...very slow fishing.
