HIGH LAKE SPRING FISHING REPORT

Things are starting to thaw out and the fishing is starting to pick up.


CRANE PRAIRIE:

The lake is full.  The water temperature is over 50 degrees already.  This means chironomids, some calibaetis, and damsel and dragons migrating.

Blood Rufus, Scott's Damsel, damselbugger, South Twins flies are working well here.


LAVA LAKE:

The lake is full.  Use flies like orange/peacock stillwaters, damselbuggers, South Twin Specials (Thin Mint), Buttonators (Rufus), Scott's Damsel, Loeberg's, Bill's grizzly hackle peacock, and Roxy Rainbows.


NORTH & SOUTH TWIN LAKES:

Full of fish and out of the wind.  Use similar patterns as Lava Lake.


FALL RIVER:

Starting to pick up.  Still BWO's and midges but X Caddis and PMD's a good bet.  The Lady Di should start working.  Streamers:  Pine Squirrel Minnows, Slump busters, Rufus', Coned South Twins, Coned Minnowbuggers.
