Lewiston Lake Fish Report for 8-1-2012
Fishing has been very good on Lewiston Lake. Plan on catching a lot of rainbows!
Lewiston Lake - Lewiston, CA (Trinity County)

Current Lake Conditions: Sometimes the bite can shut off around 2:30 PM, but reports say the love is lasting all day! That's cool!
The Fly Shop's ? Tips: A productive technique is suspending #22 red zebra midges or Gidgets under a treated piece of poly yarn. A single BB shot will get the flies down deep. About 7-8 feet. When using indicators, the takes can be difficult to see and detect. Successful indicator anglers keep the flies in the water, sometimes letting the drift extend all the way to the backing, then low and slow retrieve. Sink tip fly lines allow anglers to retrieve leeches, buggers and small nymphs fast or slow. This lake is best fished from a motorized boat, pram or pontoon boat. Float tubes are fine if you are okay with walking back up to the parking lot after the slow current of Lewiston pushes you south of the boat ramp.
