East Lake is really fishing the best of the bunch. Already there are good callibaetis hatches and all stages of this important lake mayfly are important to you on this lake. Beetles and ants, the beginning of damsel season with nymphs becoming a more important food source now. Tons of good indicator fishing with chironomids and red PT and callibaetis cate nymphs, or you can strip nymphs in the shallows on a hover, get out with an emerger tip slightly deeper, wind drift with a camo line, and even strips callibaetis nymphs and flashback PT’s on heavier density lines like a type 3 or 5 out to 15 feet of depth.
