Jason O’Brien reports that he and his son had a slow day on Mask Monday 10th of April. There was little to no fly life as temperatures seemed to be down in a northwesterly wind despite the bright sky.
Sean Mogan was their guide for the day, and they covered a great deal of water indeed. In the end it was a trolled diving plug that caught Daniel’s trout, – a red and white pattern. This is Daniels (age 13) PB for wild brown trout, one he will remember for quite some time. He will certainly be a while trying to beat it. The father and son team also had a 1/2 lb fish. All fish released to fight another day.
Later in the week fly anglers on the lake reported good fishing on wet fly with plenty of smaller fish to 1lb /1.5lb willing to take.
