I went fishing Friday morning. Got up at 5 am so I could drag myself there before day light. There was no generators running and the water was low.
I caught about 7 fish from about 7-10. All browns and all were caught on nymphs. I did have a couple bust my dry fly, but no hookups.
There was one spot below a mostly submerged rock ledge where I think I saw tailing trout? There were at least 6 fish with their dorsal fins barely breaking the plane of the water. I caught 2 browns out of the mix and I must have seen at least 3 fish jump completely out of the water after food. This took place between 6:30 and sun up. Once the sun hit the water, it was over.
I only saw one other flyfisherman that morning towards the end before I had to start working. Not a bad day, but not the greatest either. I love fishing there after the generators have turned off and the water is maybe a foot higher than what it was at that day.
Below is a video that I attempted to make of me catching one of the browns. I haven't ever done this before, and if I had a third arm it would have turned out much better.
