East Lake is good

9-23-2023
The Fly Fishers Place

East Lake is good, in some ways similar to Paulina but I don’t see the same Brown Trout school craziness here. Certainly the browns are around, but more spread out. Fall Browns at East are susceptible to Balanced Leeches and Chub Patterns.
Ants and beetles worked around the edges has been great for all trout. We got a decent Kokanee on a beetle the other day. Kokanee are weird in East Lake.
I think Callibaetis are about done for the year. Maybe a few will pop here and there for a bit, but it’s getting late for Callibaetis at 6400 feet.
