East and Paulina have continued to produce solid fishing as well. Early mornings are favoring chironomids and leech patterns, while calmer afternoons have been providing better opportunities around shallow structure, drop-offs, and cruising fish.

The overall lake outlook remains really strong right now. Water conditions are good, fish are active, and we're starting to see the transition from spring patterns toward some of the best lake fishing of the summer.

Recommended Dries:
Double Chubbies #12-14, Para Cricket #12-16, Callibaetis Cripple #14-16

Recommended Nymphs:
Balanced Leeches, KJ Diawl, Red Ass, Zebra Midges, Fire Starters, Chironomids, Balanced Damsels, Mini Leeches
