After Killing the Fish at pass lake with Akochman last week, i couldnt resist going back. He was busy this week, so i went tuesday and wednesday alone. Either the people there dont realize how easy it can be, or simply dont find it fun to fish the technique we have been doing, nobody is trolling wooley buggers! They all either sit with a chironomid or they troll sinking line with a dark bug. Trust me, if its sunny, use floating line and troll a green wooley bugger as far back as you can go, and troll FAST, much faster than u think for a fly. If its cloudy, use a white wooley bugger. Right on the surface, WAM! landed 12 for 18 takes tuesday, and 6 for 12 takes wednesday after school. Biggest rainbow went 21 inches, smallest was 15.5 inches!! no browns tho. Talked to countless people who didnt have more that 2 fish, most skunked. Dont overthink it, troll a wooley bugger in the surface, IT KILLS.

P.S. If your trolling fast like me, secure your fishing rod! there were so many biting that i decided not to lock the holder for once, and let out a bunch of line so the fish wouldnt spook. a 18 inch rainbow hit so hard that 10 feet of line stripped off the reel before i could let down the oars, and RIPPED the rod into the water and began skating it along the surface. I chased it down and got him, thank god fly rods float with floating line!!! Good luck.
