East and Paulina lake continue to fish well on balanced leeches and chironomids in fairly shallow (3-5ft). Callibaetis are starting to become important too as are some terrestrials like beetles/ants. Stripping small buggers or baitfish patterns has also been producing some fish. There are no boat ramps going in at East this year so if you have a larger boat, Paulina will probably be a better bet for launching. We have heard good initial reports from three creeks lake stripping small streamers and suspending flies under an indicator.. We have heard relatively slow reports from Hosmer although the fish that are being caught are quite nice. We have been hearing some good reports coming out of lava on leeches/chironomids.
