"Great" fly fishing reports coming from this popular Okanogon lake. Most everyone we have talked with are all touting how good the fishing has been . Lots of nice rainbows from 14 - 21 inches, with the average fish in the 17 - 18 inch category.
Numbers of fish hooked has also been quite good, with good fishermen landing 20 - 30 fish a day. Fly patterns have been very diverse, with chirnomids in black, olive and maroon being perhaps the best. There has been a little may fly action starting with Calibaetis adults hatching out in the late morning into early afternoon. When the fish are not on the chirnomids or may flies then drag out a leech pattern in black or olive and it should produce. If you decide to go this weekend be prepared for lots of angles as there will be a couple of fly club outings over the three day weekend.
