Ely Area Report - one8sevenn - 08-06-2012

Cave Lake - Fishing is fair to slow on the fly, I caught about 7 rainbows in 4 hours. Brown Wooly Buggers is what they were hitting. People were catching some sporadically as I passed in my float tube.

Comins Lake - Fishing is slow, but there are pike to be had. I Landed 3 and only had 6 bites. Lots of weeds and the fish are in them. I used the classic Red & white dare devil spoon.

Illipah Lake - Fishing is fantastic. I had a 50+ Fish day on the fly. I used a Elk Hair Caddis with a Scud underneath. The fish were in 1 1/2 - 4 foot of water. I caught fish on both flies. Shore anglers using bait limited out quickly. Boat anglers caught fish after fish. I don't know if it matters too much what you throw. Crawfish are everywhere. I caught a few and cooked them up.

Ruby Lake - Fished the Artifical flies and lures only section and caught a tons of fish before 10 am and then it just died. I was using a Copper John and Scud combo.

I only took one because my hydrophilic phone found some dihydrogen monoxide (H2O).

Thanks for the report man!

Sorry about your hydrophilic phone. Mine happens to be hydrophobic, and I make it go swimming anyway.

Great info, thank you for posting. I haven't fished up North since I was a kid. I really should make my way up there some time. It's nice to have a neighbor posting about other areas in Nevada.

It's the fourth time. I just turn it off and throw it in a bag of rice and it works. Dumb luck haha

I will only be here for a couple more weeks. I was just working out here for the summer.

One8sevenn,
Did you notice the boat ramp at Illipah Lake if it was concrete with a dock or not.
Thanks
Kevin

there is no dock at illipah. all dirt. be careful trying to launch a boat with the water level dropping. i got stuck once, wasn't fun trying to get a car out with a trailer & boat connected.
