There is still snow on the trail thanks to a couple of recent snows so there is water flowing in.
The lake is in good shape, the water is clear. I didn't see any evidence of stocker rainbows, but the Browns continue to winter over and get a bit bigger each year. You can see them rising starting in mid-morning, but I continue to do best with any peacock-bodied fly, my preference is soft hackles. I have made a couple of mid-week hikes in, my best brown came this week at the inlet, about 4:30 when the area was in shade. It's nice to have this less than a hour from my door.
