SALMON are in! You heard that right. Jon went fishing today and hit the usual inlets, First Connecticut Lake and Lake Francis, and reported that the salmon and trout are hitting.
Water temperature at First Conecticut Lake inlet (Magalloway) = 40 degrees.
Water temperature at Lake Francis inlet = 45 degrees.
There were BWOs coming off and he hooked a few on Soft Hackle Pheasant Tails which was our #1 fly on the Missouri River this Spring. Great Beatis/BWO pattern.
Streamers are always great at this time. Smelt patterns. Grey Ghost, Red Grey Ghost, Putt’s Favorite, Gray Soft Hackle Streamer and a Black Ghost.
Ice is out on Back Lake, Lake Francis and First Connecticut Lake. Moose, Middle and Little Diamond Ponds should be fishing well, and Back Lake too.
Tom has been in his waders for the last 3 days but he hasn’t been fishing. He’s been busy fixing the boat docks which took a beating from the lake ice this winter. With the help of Kevin Lassonde and our maintenance guy Josh, the docks are looking much better.
We have cabins open, a few boats in the water and the Rainbow Grille opens next Thursday. Give us a call and we’ll hook you up.
