Right now, Dry Falls is a wooly bugger and chironomid show. If we continue to have warm (but not too warm) weather, you should see good emergences of the mayfly Callibaetis and damselflies. Wooly buggers and chironomids should still be part of the arsenal.
I fished C-pot a few weeks ago.Water temp was 38.5 and it was turning.Fished from about 8-1pm,and we boated 7 fish all just under 18"(the killable size).My cousin and buddy stayed all day and got 8.Alot slower than usual, but it should get better w/warmer water and not turning over.We all fished leaches deep.The cronomidders werent doing well.Hope this helps.
Freddy, be more of a smartass. Jesus, Oly, there will be some damsel.....not dragonfly hatches when the weather warms consistently. Late May is perfect for this hatch. Fish Damsel nymphs on a lake line over weed beds. Have fun.
Hit Dry Falls Monday AM from 7-11 with no action at all. Very few fish sighted. 3 other boats fishing in that time and I saw one fish hooked (deep chironomid set up from the looks of the strike indicator and leader).
Fished several color leeches on a full sink near the bottom, deep chironomid fished with said sinking line, long-leader chironomid fished in 8-12 feet of water, stripped a damsel nymph on an intermediate all without luck. My fish finder only marked a few fish (side scan and down view) during that entire time. Guess I didn't find where they were hiding.
Wow, weird. That usually works. O well, fish are fish and they don't always do what we would think they should do
