Lake and stream fishing for native rainbow trout

Fly Fishing

The trout in the streams will take large dry flies in every month of our season making this area unique, #8 and #10 being the most commonly used sizes. Fly rods in the #4, #5, #6 sizes are used and 3x and 4x tippets on Nine foot leaders as the fish are not leader shy and these tippets will help turn over the larger flies. Lake fishing is done with large Caddis Patterns, Mayflies, Wooly buggers etc. Fifty fish days are not uncommon in many of the streams in the area.
