Pass Lake & Lone Lake


The fishing at both of these lakes has been quite good the past couple of weeks. The Chironimids have been hatching out in profusion with the nice weather that we have been having. The single largest factor as to how well you might do is dependent upon if you have figured out what bug the fish are actually taking! This in fact can be quite a chore. The best method is to examine the stomach contents of the first fish you happen to catch. By pumping the stomach and examining the contents you will get an idea of what the most predominate bug and its size and color so you can match it as closely as possible. This is an invaluable aid to your productiveness.

The fish at Pass have been a 13 - 14 inch average with some pushing the 20 inch mark. There are a few browns mixed in the the more prolific rainbows.

The fish at Lone are all rainbows and most have averaged in the 13 - 16 inch range with an odd one pushing into the 20 inch plus range.
