East Lake is good and by far has thew best Callibaetis hatches of any lake in the region. That ought to go for another 3 weeks unless we get a freaky cold snap in Sept.
Beeltes and Hoppers on East have been consistent.
Nymphing under the indicator with Chironomids and Callibaetis nymphs is certainly a good way to find some nice fish here.
