Michael, Omak Lake is really deep, like about 325' deep. Plus it has a surface acreage in the neighborhood of 3,244 acres. The nice thing is that it is a natural lake with some great structure for the Lahontan cutts. It's about 7 miles SE from the town of Omak. You'll need a tribal permit, which I believe, is about $7 per day. There have been a number of flyfishers here from the eastside that have been doing quite well and some have not. Omak Lake fishing can be either hot or cold. You may have to do some exploring, but that's the fun part. Definately take a full sinking line. I'd take two, one being a Type II uniform sink and the other a RIO deep 7, using black wooly buggers or black rabbit leeches. I'd also take my floating line for early evening chironomid or morning fishing off a strike indicator (ugh!) But hey! It works! Especially the bionic worm! You guys out there...don't laugh! Beats lutefisk. If you don't know what a bionic worm is, please relpy to me off line and I'll provide you with the tying details. For me...I've used a small #14 caddis emerger there and done just fine. Hope this helps.
