Baum has been somewhat slower than usual for this time of year. The weather will be warming over the next two weeks and this should kick the insects into high gear soon. Balanced Leeches, Crystal Buggers, these are go-to's on this lake. Bring all of your smaller Adams and Parachute Adams, you should get a chance to cast over some noses here. Our guides have this place wired if you are looking for some tactical advice on fishing a great spring creek fishery with an expert!
