Hosmer Lake was my shining star this week. Sean and I had excellent fishing using the new Fulling Mill Drop Back Bung indicators (these are cylindrical shaped indicators which are pulled under the water easier than a cylindrical shape indicator, which helps on delicate takes). I had a hunch the fish would be persnickety so I set up Sean with 2 feet of Seagaur 10# fluoro butt section to a tippet ring and 3.5 feet of Rio Fluorocarbon Tippet to a #14 Olive thread body with red krystal flash rib and a bronze drop bead 3.8mm. We hammered them on that set up.
Went to the Upper Lake for a bit after lunch and was pleasantly surprised to see a decent callibaetis hatch with fish rising until the wind whipped the hatch away. So it is not over….
Leeches, Damsel Nymphs, Soft Hackles, and assortment of Chironomids including the blood worm stage plus Scuds and Water Boatman need to be in your Homser kit for the rest of the season.
I would also add Hippie Stompers, Small to Mid Size #10-14 Chubbies, Beetles and Ants to the box and fish them close to the reed lines in the lower lake and channel.
