Hit the lake early yesterday... just brutal conditions; the rain/snow/sleet wasn't overly bad, but the wind driving it was miserable, and relentless.
I managed 3 on chironomids and missed/lost 3 others... only fished for about 1 1/2 hours before calling it. Water is ice cold and the bite very subtle. All were healthy 16-17" fish.
Looks to be another high water year up there again, although the lower reservoir is extremely low... so maybe they'll be transferring a lot of water? Inlet already flooded up to the rock pile.
Some pics attached.
