Frenchman's is a much deeper lake than Davis. The water stays a little cooler especially with a little wind to break up the surface temps. The fly fishing has been really good for the past three weeks or so. In the mornings fish can be found cruising the shallows searching for Damsels, Callabaetis and Midges. You can even fish to them from the shore. As the morning wears on they move out into the channels and drop-offs in 5-15 feet of water.
Stripping snails and Damsels with a sink tip or a type two sinking line has been really effective. If there is a little chop on the water hanging some nymphs under an indicator about 8-10 feet down is also working well. The fish in Frenchman's are really healthy and strong for their size. Most of the fish are in the 13-16 inch range but fight like a fish that is 16-20 inches.
