Jfg Fishing Report 4/11

[Zack Hoyt]

Lake level is 660.58 ft. Generation is around the clock with 4 - 6 units. Drift fishing from a boat is the best option. Use high water nymphing tactics or stripping streamers with a sink-tip or full sinking line. Caddis are still present but the high water is hampering traditional presentations. Fly selection: Prince nymph, Zug Bug, Z-Wing Caddis, BH Caddis (olive, tan), Pheasant Tail, Copper John, San Juan Worm (red, pink, worm brown); sizes 12 - 16. Wooly Bugger, Butt Monkey and Zoo Cougar; sizes 2 - 6.
