The lake has yet to really slow down and this week we are seeing days on par with the most epic November we’ve seen.

This fishery will certainly be one to benefit from a storm pushing through, and the low pressure system will likely get these fish on the chew. The one factor to keep an eye on will be the full moon this weekend. During a full moon and for a day or two after, the bite will almost always slow down. So, if you’re looking to fish out here, you may want to wait until early next week.

The fish have been taking a wide variety of flies and presentations. Fishing an indicator with leeches or midges as well as fishing a sinking line with boobies, buggers and beetles have all been working about equally well depending on the conditions or the beach you end up fishing. The beaches with a good drop off and sandy bottoms typically will fish best using leeches under an indicator or stripping flies. The shallower beaches with tufa rock are a great place to hang a midge under an indicator. The beaches with gradual drop offs are great places to strip floating flies such as beetles or boobies.

Most beaches up and down the lake are all fishing nearly the same, so if one beach is crowded or the bite isn’t happening there, don’t be afraid to move around a bit and consider trying somewhere new!
