It's weird though the article made it sound like an all day fishery. I think had I more time to mess around, I could've found where the fish were feeding, the grizzled local made it sound like they moved deeper ... so long leader chironmid type stuff probably would've done the trick ... who knows ...

I read that article too and was interested but I'm never really up that way. Too bad it sounds like it's just a morning fishery... reminds me of Pass Lake which I consider an evening fishery.

After reading about Fish Lake in the latest Northwest Fly Fishing magazine, I decided to give it a try. I had a 10:30 am brunch meeting so I got up at 6:15 am and headed out to the lake. I probably hit the water around 7:00. I first trolled woolery bugger for about 20 minutes without a strike. Saw a few rises, so I switched rods to a floating line and nymphed a pheasent tail about 5 - 6 feet under the surface. Like a light switch the fish started hitting. I had a fish on about every 10 minutes, with a strike every 5. Then as soon as the soon hit the water I was fishing everything turned off. I talked with a local fisherman who said, the morning is the best, you can catch several dozen fish close to the surface until the sun hits the water. Then the fish head deep. It was time to go, in the end I had 4 fish on 10 - 15 inches. Mark
