Recent reports have the fish feeding on midges, mayfly nymphs, and leeches. This lake has a ton of Damselflies and Dragonflies, and olive Damseleeches can be dynamite! Even though you won't see them hatching this time of year, they will still eat the nymphs. Any sort of leech pattern, Wooly Buggers in brown and olive, and Balanced Leeches should be in your box. Fished under an indicator or stripped on an I-Line. Of course, you would be remiss if you didn't have an array of midge pupae ready to fish. Zebra Midges in #16 - 18, black and red, are a staple here.
