Big Lava Lake - July 11th, 2004
supplied by: [url "http://www.fisheyesoup.com/redir.php?recKey=22,re"][#0000ff]Fly and Field Outfitters[/#0000ff][/url]
FISHING: Good
The algae bloom has been on the lake; should be clearing soon.
Bigger fish will head toward the deeper holes as the water warms, but there is still some good fly fishing available along the shallower north shore, and to the west side of the resort.
Olive or rust buggers with a slow retrieve near the shore or drop-offs have been good. The midges are hatching midday and into the evening hours; an indicator with a midge pupa can be deadly. Callibaetis are emerging and the fish know it!
FLIES: Beadhead Olive or Rust Woolly Buggers, Roxy Rainbow, Callibaetis Nymph, Frostbite Midge, Black Serendipity & San Juan Worms.
