Frenchman's is low but the fish are big and healthy. Callabaetis have been hatching mid-morning and there are plenty of midges around. There have been some fish caught in the shallows but the best way to approach Frenchman's has been with a Deep Water Lake Leader and hanging Maholo Nymphs and Midges in 9-16 feet below the surface. The takes are quick and you have to be ready. Keep slack out of your line and keep your rod tip on the water. The best time to fish this technique is when there is a little chop on the water. Late mornings have been the best time.
