There were 32 boats out over the week, 30 fish were kept, weighing 96 lbs, and 24 were returned. Water clarity is still excellent, however, the bright sunshine and changing gusts have affected the catch rate. The best tactics were: Floating, Midge-Tip with Fast Glass, Di3/5 and Intermediate lines for fishing deeper. Flies doing the taking were Buzzers, Candy Boobies, Diawl Bachs, Muskins, orange Blobs, Fabs, and Cats, also, successful were mini-Lures and Snakes.

On Monday Freddie Padden managed to net and release 1 Rainbow.
