Some friends and I fished Starvation yesterday from 7:30 until 3:00 on our toons/tubes. We were all using fly gear with size 6-8 leeches and buggers with medium sinking lines. We picked up some 14" smallmouth, rainbows from 15" - 20", browns from 18" - 22", and some walleye from 18" - 23". The water temperature was 52-55 degrees and the visibility in the water of about 8'. The reservoir level is about the same as last week, around 88% full and stable for right now. There were some midges on the water and a few fish feeding on the surface after them along with the birds. There weren't many shore anglers but several boats on the water while we were there.
It was a fun day with some good company to share the water with.[

We are trying to get in all the fishing we can before the Memorial Day weekend and the power squadron starts to show up for the summer.[:/]
