Baum Lake Updates!
7-25-2024
The Fly Shop
Baum is in the summer cycle and if you aren't looking at rising fish you will definitely get them to eat stripped leeches or Balanced Damsels under an indicator. Recent info indicates Water Boatmen and Damselflies are huge menu items for the Rainbows. Swinging Damseleeches on an I-Line or throwing the Boatman patterns can be super effective. This watershed is a midge and BWO factory, bring your Zebra Midge box and change up colors if you aren't getting takes. The BP Weiss Nymph in light or dark will likewise fish well. And for dry fly fishing, an assortment of Adams in #14-18 with some dark Missing Links thrown in can have you head hunting asap. Balanced Leeches in black and olive under an indicator when the wind picks up can save the day here. Our guides have this place wired if you are looking for some tactical advice on fishing a great spring creek fishery with an expert!
